#he talks every day about them in non hippa violating vague terms but hes always so happy talking about them

my bf being a therapist is actually really enlightening because I've learned a whole lot about how to spot a bad therapist

#hes someone who's like legitimately dedicated himself to being a genuinely good therapist #his patients are pretty much exclusively people that have felt like other therapists gave up on them #he talks every day about them in non hippa violating vague terms but hes always so happy talking about them #& just being like oh my Thursday patients making really good progress im really proud of them stuff like that #he takes on overnight er shifts at the hospital so they call him in if they need psych evals for er patients #he does that because i guess a lot of the time coming in thru er is really rough & can be traumatic for ppl already in a bad spot #so he really tries to turn it into at least a less horrible experience I mean nobodies having a good time if they're there for er psych yk #but hes just extremely dedicated to trying his best to be a good therapist for people & really takes his ethics seriously #i feel a lot of like pride by proxy & im glad hes doing something he really loves
