I think basically it's purchased caring. And because caring cannot just be dispensed, it's also probably fake or feigned caring. So, you have a practice that purports to treat nothing less than trauma, using a form of convoluted and synthetic caring. But the client receives insistent messages suggesting this caring is actually superior to the real thing, because the therapist has been expertly trained in this special kind of caring, and can ladle it out, just so.

So scientific!
