Because I feel she is trying to make my spiritual views disapear and I would like to see if anyone here felt the same going to a classical psicologist.

I started going to a psicologist almost 10 years ago when I was in highschool because I couldnt concentrate on my studies and my parents brought me there.

It was just a therapy speaking with her.
It was a great great in life.

She helped me soo much to understand myself, my life, and also to understand humam behaviour in general. I feel partly if I can understand other people problems its because stuff she thooth me.

So I aprecciate her and its been a great help but I always felt there is a problem and lately I feel that even more.

She can't stand that I have spiritual view of things or that this is an important part of my life.

Everytime I say something about it she gets so nervous and tries to give a cientific explanation about it.
Its like she cant stand hearing about something she cant explain with her mind.

Also I believe she know me for a long time and she feels like... protective with me.
Like if I was kind of family.

And everytime she hears about me going to a healer or to kundalini yoga or just simply hear my views about something she gets so nervous and acts like if any kimd of spiritual thing was just something harmfull to me or to people in general.

And she thinks faith, magic, religiion, and all this things are a socially acepted craziness like some childish unhelathy part of peoples mind.

Even ... just because I think we storage our emotions in our phisicall body so when we do yoga or get massages like Shiatsu massage or things like that, some emotions which were blocked may get released.
This idea she feels its like silly and.childish and she says because of believing in those things I have a teenager mind.

And I dnt know... I believe its not that crazy to believe our phisicall body keeps diferent emotions in diferent parts.

I experienced that several times. Getting some memories from the past or some old emotions throught unblocking my body. Specially throught kundalini yoga.

Anyway.. I am feeling she has been in so many ways a huge help in the past but I believe sometimes we need faith and magic and... to feel that beauty and that sparkle of life, more than a perfect intelectual understanding of things.

And I feel she is trying to erase this part of me which somehow is the most important one.
Because what rationality do you find in... love for example?

I mean if we love people there is no reason for it, it comes from the soul. Like faith and like the majority of important things in life.

I feel its time to stop going to her therapy, because it may stop my spiritual growth. I dont understand why is she so wise in some aspects like... knowing why you act in certain way or deeply knowing stuff about people she doesnt even know or about human behaviour in general.
And then she seems to not get very basic spiritual things which for me are so obiouvs.

Anyway, I feel its time to leave her , because as I know words are.very powerfull I dont wanna be hearing stuff like ' magic doesnt exist' or this phrases which somehow feel painfull to me because I am in a moment where I need faith more than ever.

I know I wrotte a lot... I dont expect people tto read but just in case you did.. thanks a lot!

And I would love to hear your experience with psicologist.

Blessings to you all!

Thanks for your words but I wont dare to say I know more than her because she may know more about stuff I have no idea about.
Like... how neurons works in the brain or ... stuff about human behaviour.

But I do think I know something important about life that she doesnt and that she cant understand. In that sense I feel she indeed could learn from me or others.

In any case, the profession is notorious for people with issues, as many get into psychology to deal with their own issues, fail, and then project them onto their clients. If she's overstepping her bounds then that would be a red flag to me. (To be fair, if you've seen her for about 10 years then it could be that she sees you more as family than a client, but it still doesn't seem professional behavior to me.)

'Course there are lots to beware of when it comes to anything metaphysical as it's so easy to fake, and people who feel a need to see a psychologist are probably especially vulnerable as they're already paying people to help them (and many metaphysical healers, especially the dishonest, could be very tempting with quick fixes--not to say this is happening in your specific case as I don't know, but your psychologist could assume so)...but the same can be said for psychotherapy so they're the last profession that should be pointing it out.
