This, of course, means they are mediocre (at best) at any of these approaches. Most of these Ts did not even take a full course in any one of these therapeutic approaches in their master's program, I'll wager. (EMDR training is done after the degree so that's a bit different. If they have that certification, they can't fake it.)

Oh, yeah, Info calls herself "eclectic."
Or maybe that should be elk-lectic in her case.
Though she does have certification in EMDR, and she's not even good at that.
Speaking of whom, she's off in Africa on a church mission, so it's just me and baby-faced grief counselor the next few weeks. I scheduled a one-off session with Visa because I want to talk about something hearing-related, which is what she's good for.
Yeah, I think I'll call the grief counselor Baby Face.
