I Believe a Counselor I Was Seeing Abused Me, Can I Sue Her Financially?

Question by journeyinprogress: I believe a counselor I was seeing abused me, can I sue her financially?
This counselor worked in an organization(Alliance) that helps homeless people suffering from mental health problems. I have a history of drug addiction, but also need to be on narcotics for chronic pain. This counselor manipulated me into giving her my meds for what she said were horrible migraines. I felt terrible for her and I did`nt always need to take my immediate release pain med so I had some to spare and I gave them to her. Ever since the first time , she called me sounding really ill and crying asking me if I could spare her some more pain meds. I stopped seeing her and eventually stopped taking her phone calls. I need to continue therapy for my own health, but feel I can`t trust anyone. I already had severe trust issues and have no friends.She pretended to be my friend even though she said this was not allowed in a therapeutic relationship.I have recorded phone messages where she is sounding terrible and asking for me to give her more “help” for her pain.What can I do legally?

You need to contact your local mental health organization and tell them what happened. This is very very unusual and certainly very suspect. She needs help and needs to be investigated before she does this to anyone else….best wishes
