Client confessed love for me and then ended their life
Tragic, tragic, heartbreaking loss. Won't go into any details to protect client privacy, but it's hard to swallow. Would be so grateful for any resources, groups, or advice as I grieve.
I've canceled most of my sessions for the week, but have kept a few. My backlogged notes for other clients are creating some anxiety. What a rollercoaster.
The most captivating client I've worked with to date, and they continue to be so even in their death. Grateful to have known them.
Update: Unbelievably thankful for the outpouring of support. It's been incredibly helpful to read and utilize ❀️ Very unfortunately I just got news of a second client passing. Two in the same week. This one was not by suicide.
Edit:
Erotic Countertransference
Looking for personal experiences navigating romantic/erotic countertransference (especially that in response to erotic transference)... I'm seeking supervision and being mindful about how I'm showing up with this client, but I'd love if anyone would be open to sharing more about their own experiences with this, and what the ultimate outcome was for you. Interestingly, this client has expressed their own attraction to me, and we're working through it/making use of it in our work together. They are not aware of my feelings beyond the genuine care I have for them. My framework leans relational psychodynamic for reference.

This is a fricking sad story. @MarseyIsMyWaifu go hug your family and celebrate Christmas so you don't have to an hero like this guy.
What a fricking nightmare for the fricking poor therapist too.
