What should I get my 50 year old male therapist?

Answer #1

a portrait, a necklace, a card, a thank-you note, dinner, ect.

Answer #2

You shouldn’t? Gift exchange with therapists is extremely difficult. I get my therapist a card sometimes. But really they can’t accept anything of monetary value, and it really is awkward having to refuse a gift. I know, you want to show your appreciation, so just give them a card and write how much you appreciate them, or something like that. Buying a gift just puts therapists in a weird position.

Answer #3

They can’t accept necklaces or dinner…

Answer #8

Answer #9

Answer #10

I’m with Ty - you shouldn’t get your therapist anything - that just crosses the line between patient and therapist and makes the relationship personal, which is a huge no-no

Answer #11

ahaahaha thats an awsommemeee idea

Answer #12

You want to learn ethics in therapy take a class. Or I can recommend the book we used. I’m not going to explain what took several years to learn in one paragraph.

Answer #13

I agree with this. Although your thoughts are kind and generous thinking on a gift, your therapist most likely won’t be able to accept anything that you get for him. It crosses the patient-helper line, unfortunately. Expressing your thanks verbally or in a card may be a lot better.

Answer #14

a gift card to the mall or his favorite place would be an excellent gift.
