Look, it's a problem in the industry. The problem is so many in the industry wanting the easiest clients and working 9-5 hours.
A former psychiatrist/therapist, used to complain about how many referrals he got for complex patients. He has practiced for 40 years, and he said it has gotten much worse over the past few years that he has had to start turning some away.
Obviously, not everyone feels passionate about this issue, but many believe that those in the industry have some responsibility to the patient population and access issues. So many just don't do their part despite being able to, causing a lot of burden on the therapists who do indeed do their part.

t seems completely counter to everything we know about the importance of supportive families and good parenting to say therapists MUST put others before their own families and their own personal welfare. (Personally, I don't think that is quite what the ethics code intends, but since it keeps being quoted as the justification and reason these hours MUST be provided, then it is open for argument.)

That is coming from you, not me.
