I'm a therapist, we are all human. Also there are a lot of different flavors of therapists out there, depending on the state you live in someone can pass themselves off as a therapist if they are a life coach etc. Someone who specializes in marriage counseling might be an LMFT, they have a different professional standard than a social worker or a mental health counselor. At the end of the day thought we are still human beings, just because we dispense best practice advise doesn't mean we follow it. Physician heal thyself , a contractor with a hole in the wall, a cobbler with no shoes it applies.
