Yes they do, but I'm a pain in the neck client and I ask. "Why did you say that?" "How am I supposed to do that?" and sometimes if I'm feeling particularly annoying, "How many placebo controlled research studies support the efficacy of this method?" I don't get along well with psychodynamic therapists. They seem to have more trouble explaining things or I have more trouble understanding/believing their explanations. I'm the same way with medical doctors. I have a real pet peeve about being "talked down to," so when I feel like a professional is doing that I pull out my GRE words and start talking down to them.
