Khloe Kardashian ditched therapy because she's convinced her counsellor leaked private information

Khloe Kardashian ditched therapy because she was convinced "private information" from one of her sessions had been leaked.

'The Kardashians' has confessed she started going to a therapist to deal with the aftermath of her divorce from Lamar Odom, but she gave up amid fears something she revealed in confidence had found its way into the press and it destroyed her trust in the process.

She told Bustle: "I remember I was going to therapy and the next thing I knew, something private I told my therapist was on a tabloid. And I knew that my therapist disclosed this information to a tabloid because there’s no way this could have gotten out there.

"So I stopped going to therapy and started going to the gym. I needed a release, but I did not trust anybody else anymore. And the place that I felt the safest was the gym."

She added of the alleged leak: "It was very jarring and sort of unbelievable, but there’s not a chance in the world that it came from anywhere else."

However, Khloe started attending therapy again when she hit the age of 39 following encouragement from her sister Kim Kardashian.

She said: "I do go to therapy now. I started when I was 39 ... She’s [the therapist] really lovely and I really like her. It’s actually Kim’s therapist.

"Kim was really adamant. I was like: 'I’ll do this for you'. I dragged my feet, and then I was like: 'Wow, OK, this is good. I needed this.'

"And my therapist was like: 'I think you should come three days a week'. She was like: 'You really need to be here.' It all worked out."
