My current shrinks are wonderful.......I have been fortunate.
But there was one........a Freudian psychiatrist into regressive therapy.......hhhmmmm.
After he requested that I rehash my somewhat sadistic sexual transgressions as a young adult and basically told me that I was a "sexual predator" and that I allowed my "animal instincts" to control me with poor impulse control.....he continuously wiped his hands on his pants leg, with sweat beading on his forehead and a desperate gleam in his eye in an air-conditoned room........yep, creepy.
I thought to myself "If he even leans toward me, he will see animal instincts in action, without the keeping of his hands."
Talk about freaking me out. I got some STRONG scary vibes off him. Or maybe he was scared of me, not sure.
Avoid Freudian Psychs.......they all think you are in love with your father and want to destroy your mother(if you are a girl) and make you feel completely debased. I never went back.

Eeeewwwww.
I had a psychiatrist recommend Freudian psychoanalysis to me once. It took me completely by surprise, I wasn't aware anyone still practiced it any more! It was as if my GP had offered to bleed me with leeches to cure an imbalance of humours or something. He also offered me citalopram, a drug which frequently has terrible side effects and which is very hard to get off (I've seen 4 people struggle with it, not a nice thing to watch). I'm very glad I didn't take up either offer!
On topic, I've had a psychiatrist tell me there was no way I could have autism since all autistics are mute and mentally ret*d.
