Cynthia, therapy cannot be successful if the client feels the need to keep the symptoms hidden from the therapist! It seems pretty clear that this clinic is not well-versed or experienced in treating cutting, and you are reacting to that, realistically, I think. Why not share the book with them, give them the opportunity to get better educated about it? Also, I would suggest making an appointment with the nearest psychiatric clinic at a university, and travelling for a consult. Hopefully with a specialist in this problem. Then, the consultant could provide some guidance to your clinic. Can you ask the nurse, et. al, if they would be willing to do something like that?
