I think T.A. is considered one of the humanistic therapies. It's interesting that I bought that book on T.A. ("Games People Play") decades ago--I don't know why--and I read it through, just dipped in here and there. Now 30+ years later I am actually involved in this kind of stuff. It had its appeal for me even then.

Rainbow, it sounds like you are getting a good list together of what you want in therapy and won't you don't. This will be helpful in finding your next T.
