Whistleblowers are exposing what is seemingly a group effort by licensed therapists to deny care to patients for their political views or even lack of political involvement. For instance, leftist therapists in one group,
Therapists In Private Practice, openly encourage canceling appointments with clients last second if they didn’t support Vice President Kamala Harris for President against Donald Trump.
And the sheer diversity, in terms of reach across the country, is troubling. Thousands of mental health professionals, from every state, take part in these private groups.
“Get rid of them. Kick them out and refer them.” – McCall Evans, Drama Therapist at Mindful Way Therapy. Washington.
“Cancel them. Literally.” – Jennifer Kokes, Psychotherapist at Summer Counseling. Minnesota.
“If I cannot, I would have to refer them out. I think there are some populations we are not able to work with and that’s OK.” – Kaaren Tollaksen Anderson, Psychotherapist & Counselor at Kaaren Anderson LPC. Wisconsin.
“I don’t think that will happen from my clients. But if it goes: I’ll have to stop immediately and refer out. Because I’ll become dysregulated and won’t be able to ignore it. And yes, referring them to mental health center and psych today is acceptable.” – Carolyn Ann, CEO and Psychologist at Hope Springs Behavioral Health. Pennsylvania.
“I only have one client I know that will be celebrating and I don’t see them for a week, thank goodness.” – Amber Gambel, Clinical Social Worker at Emily Maddox Therapy & Associates. California.
“Yeah, I don’t have the patience to hold space for folks who have feelings with their inaction. They need to sit with this feeling. This is the decision they made! Deciding not to vote is a choice. Decisions and elections all have consequences. We can not lesson the blow of consequences.” – Keisha Bryan, Clinical Social Work & Therapist at Wake Renewal. North Carolina.
Health professionals openly insult their clients for voting for Trump or for not voting at all. The more extreme leftist professionals confess they’d have a psychological breakdown if a client came out as conservative. Providers conspiring to withhold treatment from clients who hadn’t voted but who were depressed by Trump’s victory as an extrajudicial punishment. These are licensed professionals who have been entrusted by the public, generally and legally, to care for all in an impartial fashion.
