Abstract
Patients who have had sexual contact or sexualized relationships with preview therapists present a unique set of subsequent treatment challe nges. From the patient's perspective, the breach of trust experienced in the previous therapy has likely made the formation of a new therape utic alliance both threatening and compelling. It is also likely that whatever caused the patient to enter therapy in the first place has ne ver been adequately treated.
