Caroline Kosino, LMSW

Caroline did not set any kind of boundaries with me, not only allowing, but encouraging, me to reach out through text and email outside of office hours. I would reach out anytime I was struggling to self regulate, and she would help me to calm down, which lead to a dependency on her and my therapy. I also started experiencing transference early on in our work together, which I brought up many times during our relationship, but she did not help me to work through it. This transference became very strong in November 2021, and I nearly took my life due to the guilt I felt for my wife. Caroline cut off communication and terminated me while I was hospitalized. This abandonment retraumatized me, as I had been abandoned by my mother at 4 and had been transferring maternal feelings onto her. I’ve now been hospitalized 3 times as a result of her “care”, no longer trust in therapy, and am still struggling 3 1/2 months later, even with the 4 psych meds I have now been placed on.
