Have to agree with Divine1966...therapists will foster transference in the interest of maintaining their own income stream. they have so much power and the consumer is vulnerable, by definition. It's a problem that stems from our fee for service model of health care. Who gets incentivized to get patients well and keep them out of the therapist's chair? No one. The self paying patient is like the goose that lays the golden egg every week. Keep that baby alive and keep it comin'.
