Better left between...

Lex: Let's be frank, Dominic. My father sent you here to spy on me because
he's afraid of how well I'm doing. This was my last chance to prove myself and
he just assumed I'd fail. Now he has to revise his definition of me. I'm not just
his screw-up son anymore. Now I'm competition. And my father only knows
one way of dealing with competition.

Dominic: There are some things better left between patient and therapist, Lex.
Is he implying that Lex is mad or is he bored with him?

Hi, Here's how I would understand it. There are some things better left between patient and therapist , = There are some things that two people should not tell to others. Sort of secret, like those between a patient and his/her doctor/psychiatrist.
