I read your response with interest and empathy. However, I feel it's important to address a few misconceptions for the benefit of anyone reading this.
Firstly, the idea that mental health practitioners prioritize patients based on their societal functionality or perceived risk level is not accurate. In the United States, mental health professionals are bound by ethical guidelines that stress the importance of client-centered care. This means that treatment decisions should be based on individual needs and therapeutic goals, not on a patient's external life circumstances like job stability or living situation.
If you've repeatedly been discharged from therapy after only a few sessions, this is concerning and not a standard practice in mental health care. Therapists are trained to provide ongoing support, and decisions to conclude therapy should ideally be mutual and based on progress and goals, not on arbitrary measures of functionality.
Also, the concept of 'triage' in mental health doesn't operate the same way as in emergency medical settings. While it's true that individuals in crisis might need immediate attention, this doesn't mean others are deemed 'low priority.' Everyone's mental health needs are important, and a good therapist understands this.
If you or anyone else feels that your therapy is being prematurely concluded or that you're not getting the depth of support you need, it's crucial to bring this up with your therapist. If the issue persists, seeking a second opinion or a different therapist might be necessary. It's important to find a therapist who resonates with your needs and provides the required level of support.
While your experiences are valid and unfortunate, they are not reflective of standard mental health practice. I encourage anyone seeking therapy to advocate for their needs and keep searching for a therapist who offers the right support and commitment.
