Why have that awkward, direct talk when you can divert the objections to your friends and family? (more here)

I greatly dislike the Howes guy - but I think it is a theory some of them put forth
In a way I kind of agree with them. If you have a problem with something your therapist said it makes perfect sense to talk to the therapist directly about it. And mostly that's the advice people give here. However, sometimes it will be two weeks or more between sessions, and you are supposed to just sit with all those emotions until then? Especially if the therapist doesn't like in between emails, etc.
Thanks for this!
