You go on the premise that clients regularly behave aggressively in session. I'd guess it is actually fairly unusual behavior.

I teach. On rare occasions a student becomes aggressive, and I am not at all comfortable when that happens. I will have that student removed. Does that mean I should do something else as a living too because I become scared if that kind of aggression is displayed by a student? Your logic just doesn't work here because you assume this is regular behavior.
Thanks for this!
