Would like to see evidence that re-experiencing painful feelings, in therapy or otherwise, is healthy. If something happens in therapy that causes significant shame or distress, that should be considered a psychological injury like any other, and could be destructive when seen in absolute terms. The assumption that this is necessary or beneficial is therapy marketing more than reality, as I see it.
