Thanks for the response, Faye. Believe me when I say that I don't think I have any special knowledge because I'm a student. In fact, a lot of our work focuses on self-knowledge and self-development. Not that I think that stuff is unimportant, but I don't think we get nearly enough training in looking at things from the client's point-of-view. (In that regard, I've learned more by being a client and listening to you guys than I have in graduate school.)

You mentioned "checks and balances". Here's what I'm trying to get at: What would those checks and balances be like? What are they? Same kind of deal with the "accountability" down mentioned. I know there isn't a lot of accountability among therapists and I'm wondering what it would look like. What would a therapist do to be accountable in your eyes?
