I've been seeing him for a couple months now and yesterday when I saw him I felt really uncomfortable. So he's 54 and I'm only 13. I was just sitting on the chair and he kept looking at my body. I mean, he kept looking me up and down. I'm scared he might do something. What do you think? Reply to this Question Share |

Every poster on here has given you top advice, the best thing that you can possible do is tell your Mum. Don't even contemplate going to another meeting with this guy, there is obviously something not right about him. Please tell your Mum what happened and let her take it from there.
All the best & good luck x

take care

I agree with everyone on here, tell your mum! She has no idea about it and you're supposed to be going to him for help, not making you feel uneasy and scared!
Tell your parents and ask to change cousellers, you shouldn't feel uneasy around him, you should feel relaxed. So follow your instincts and your heart, and tell someone.
Take care x

Your Mom has NO idea that this man is creepy, you have to tell her. She wouldn't want you to be in the same room with him if she knew. It's really important that you speak up and tell your Mom. Always trust your own feelings! Your Mom will find you a new therapist.

personally, i think that you should talk to your parents about either changing your councilor or try to work things out on your own. im sure if you tell your mom you're uncomfortable with your councilor and tell her what he does then she shouldnt make you go anymore.

Anytime you feel uncomfortable about something like this, Don't keep it a secret. Tell your Mom, and request a Famale Therapist.
Go with your instincts. There are a lot of creepy people out there. He sounds like one of them.
A friend of mine had the same problem with her Private Piano Teacher. She was about your age. She never told anyone. He progressed into inappropriate physical contact with her.
Stop it before it starts.

Hi Hun, if you feel uncomfortable with your councellor looking at you in an inappropriate way tell your mother and get her to register you to a different person.
Good Luck Hun. Dusky xxx

In this case I would say it is very unprofessional and insensitive to say the least. At worst it could be sexual. You need to see a different therapist and put your need to do this above everything else.

I doubt he'll do 'something' but there's nothing wrong with asking your mom for a female therapist. . .its perfectly normal for women to ask for a woman to talk to because of the things your feeling as well as people just find it easier talking to someone the same sex as themselves. . .
