Are therapists as judgmental as people make them out to be?

Every therapist is different, and in my experience none of them have been judgmental. They want to help you, they will sit and ask you about yourself and try their best to understand you.

Therapists are not meant to judge anyone. They are wonderful people that we can talk to during difficult times. They can help guide us in the right direction when the path becomes blurred.

I honestly feel as if it does not make a difference if they are a judgmental or not. They are people like everyone else so there will always be judgement. They may be more accepting but it will not take away the judgement.

Not at all. But sometimes a client and his/her therapist may just not be the right fit. It's all about finding the right one through trial and error. So if you have a bad experience with your first ever therapist, make sure to look for another and not just give up. Once you find the right one, the results are sublime! And you will know it when you find "the one" in a sense.

Each therapist is different and some may come off as being judgmental and others may not. If you're looking for a therapist then I advise trying out multiple different ones to see who fits best.

Not usually. Most people who go into counseling or psychology have either experienced the consequences of stress and psychopathology themselves, or have a loved one who has endured these experiences. Subsequently, therapists are often more empathetic towards the struggles of others, because they know these struggles first-hand. Furthermore, a good therapist will have been well-educated, well-trained, and have come into contact with many people who struggle with mental health issues over the course of his/her career, hopefully expanding his/her understanding and appreciation for the nuances of human experience. However, therapists are human and their traits are as diverse as what you might find in the general population. A person who was judgmental and self-serving before he/she became a therapist might very well become a therapist who is judgmental and self-serving, but that is a reflection of the character of the individual, and is not a general representation of therapists.

Some therapists are, not all of them are though. I have met some pretty cool therapists in my life time, they aren't too terribly bad.

Therapists do not make judgements. They will help you understand your own personal history and relate it with the specific issue you brought to therapy. They will not judge under any circumstances.

The truth is everyone is judgemental. Some of therapists just don't let their judgement affect their work.

No , therapists are only there to listen and help you , not judge.. Sometimes people confuse help as judging
