That Shrinklady implies "transference" is an affliction, as if the mere fact you are projecting something from the past onto the present, which EVERY human does, indicates a problem that must be processed in therapy.

And it's a crazy leap of logic to assume that projections onto the figure of the therapist necessarily represent something real and true, as opposed to anomalous phenomena generated by the freakishly unnatural circumstances of therapy.

How many mental contortions must one go thru to buy into this?

Also what they never address is that once hooked into this regressive and dependent dynamic, some clients will never be able to escape in one piece... if they escape at all and don't become lifers.

Seems majority of these people have had an ethical lobotomy, or just have no self-awarness.
