Definition: When your therapist hijacks the session to serve their own agenda instead of yours. They might drone on about 70s rock bands, spill your secrets to their bar buddies, or obsess over pseudoscience like the Enneagram—labeling you as “such a 4” mid-panic attack.
Basically, they’ve commandeered your mental health voyage for their ego trip, leaving you stranded with a bill and zero progress. Bail before they steer you into a therapy Bermuda Triangle.
Example:
During my grief counseling, my therapist spent 20 minutes detailing his divorce instead of addressing my loss, clearly hijacking the session for his own agenda.
Mid-panic attack about work, she interrupted to declare me “such an Enneagram 4,” obsessing over pseudoscience while offering zero progress or actual coping strategies.
