Period. If all involuntary responses were comfortable and wanted, psychotherapy for emotions would have nothing to do.
There would be no neurosis.
Please feel free to debate this point whether you disagree or not. I'm looking for points I might be blind to since I completely agree with the above at this point.

I think there's a lot more to therapy than what you're saying here. A lot. And I think it varies from person to person, influenced by the type and extent of their trauma, the state of their support system, and their own personality strengths and weaknesses. There's no one size fits all when we're talking about the goals of therapy.
