Unfortunately, in a moment of difficulty and weakness, I revealed to a friend something my therapist had said about her, which offended her and caused us to argue, etc.
She also works with this therapist and told me she would change her attitude toward her now, although the next day, when I explained the situation better, she seemed to soften toward her. The problem is that now I don't know whether to tell my therapist or not. I suppose I am almost forced to, given that this very argument, which caused me so much pain, was about this very issue. But at the same time, I'm terribly afraid of losing her trust and ruining our therapeutic relationship, especially since she had often warned me not to reveal what she confided in me to others, etc. I've been going to therapy all my life, and this last one I found is the best for me, and I couldn't bear the thought of losing her or ruining our relationship. She's my last hope... Please, tell me if i should say it to her or not |

Welcome to MSF @Tabrith900 -sorry to hear you are in this difficult situation. It seems unusual that your therapist would tell you things about people she works with.
Therapy in my experience should focus on you the patient and not about the therapist's work or personal life. I do not know what you should do.

She should not be telling you things you can’t say or reveal. Boundaries!

I'm sorry you're going through this. That would make me so uncomfortable. I know if it were me, I wouldn't care about the therapeutic relationship, I struggle with the boundaries issue and end up looking for another therapist. I would voice it to her if it were me, but you have to what you need to to for you. If telling her ruins your entire therapeutic relationship, that would tell me she is not the therapist you need.
