you should not seek advice or counsel from an Internet therapist. If you have a therapist, and you have any issues and concerns, you need to talk about them to your current therapist. Don't ask another psychotherapist to second-guess your current treatment, and by all means don't stop face-to-face therapy in favor of interacting over the Internet. This is to protect you. In almost all cases such a move would not be helpful to your healing process. Any therapist worth his or her ethical salt will tell you the same. I have come across this many times ( people wanting to consult me when they already have a Therapist)
Its is one of the first questions that I ask any prospective consultee.....E counselling or face to face! Do you already have a counsellor? It is under no uncertain terms detrimental to a consultees 'Mental Health' to have more than one counsellor and it is not ethical in any way to contine to counsel any one that you work with that already has a counsellor...
