When I said "guinea pig" I was referencing a personal experience with an undertrained therapist who said he "learned a lot from me" at our final session. I had thought at the time, sarcastically, "glad I could be your guinea pig".
A therapist might think they can help someone, but they don't know for sure they can. Therapy is too subjective (with lots of variables) for the outcome to be that predictable.
