excellent point; I realize that I had read that article (and others at same place) from the point of view of having been working on all this for a long time.

I have a feeling that the technique is probably effective though; it seems to intersect with so many other approaches (schema, etc).
CBT for example asks, "what's in it for you (this problematic behavior)?" I would get so insulted, so angry, at hearing that question from T1; but it seems that CT is asking pretty much the same thing, only (since it's not CBT ) not so abrasively.
