Therapist Shares Disturbing Encounter with Patient: A Viral Video Highlights Workplace Harassment
A therapist in the US recently shared a disturbing encounter with a patient who made inappropriate comments of a sexual nature. The patient, a man in his late 60s, persisted even after the therapist ended the session, stating he'd had a dream about her. "He goes, 'But can you stretch me? Like, you know it always feels good when you do that,'" the therapist recounted in a video that has since gone viral. The therapist expressed her frustration at having to maintain professionalism despite the uncomfortable situation.
