But how do you separate therapy and therapists? Therapy is practiced by therapists so of course it can be harmful.
I just think most people are delusional about the whole process being helpful. That's fine. It you think it helps then that is what matters I guess. I'm entitled to my opinions and everyone else can have their opinions as well.
