So it is not that all T's training is lacking in these terms.
I know of one group of psychoanalysts that go through this training...can you specify the group or groups you know about? I hesitate to name the one I know of only because my T is one who has had this training, but the group has moved to another city and it feels a bit 'off' by outing them. Generally speaking, it's rather sad that there seems no way for clients to know whether or not a T has experience and training in ET before jumping in.
