Now here's an interesting philosophical conundrum. The last sentence, of course, is absolutely right.
But...isn't this another excuse a therapist could use? "The patient didn't want to change enough, hence she stayed with me for 10 years, went through a lot of pain, I didn't really help her, and she still has issues. Clearly she did not want to change enough."
