Our marriage therapist seems biased towards our wife.
I (M52) am in marriage therapy with my wife (F51). We’ve been at it for about 6 months and noticing a consistent difference in the marriage therapists (female approx 40) towards my wife. Quite a bit friendlier and more empathetic. On a recent appointment the therapist actually uttered the phrase “fuck the patriarchy” as an affirmation to something my wife said. That felt like the last straw. I brought it up at the next appointment pointing out that I’m one person, not “the patriarchy”. Therapist acknowledged by saying “although we live in a patriarchal society you are correct, you are just one person”. I’ve tried REALLY hard to be open and honest and thoughtful and patient to make this therapy work. My gut is telling me I’ll never get a fair shake with this therapist. Appreciate any thoughtful insights.
