A member asked:
I don't feel as open to talk about my problems with male doctors rather than female ones. should i inform my psychiatrist about this and change him?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Yes, inform him!: Mental health treatment requires a high level of trust between therapist and patient. If your therapist's gender limits your level of trust, then this needs to be discussed with your therapist and perhaps changing therapists.
