To me right now, the whole psychotherapy industry seems vaguely exploitative. Especially anything "transference-based." I tend to think it's pseudoscience at best and cruel at worst. But then again, I am speaking from my own hurt.

In my case, I was never actually terminated, and I'm struggling with the fact that she said I'm "too sick for her to help," hurt me, but still wants my money and claims to want to help me. No termination there but it still seems seriously unethical, especially since she knows I have a horrible fear of abandonment. How is that not exploitative?
