There is no one way therapy is designed to be, supportive therapy is very much a thing and he seemed to have great use for that. Not everyone can do exploitative therapy and those are often the people who need therapy very much so because of their problems or suffering. |

I feel badly for the guy; he was barely "tolerated" by the therapist until he died. Then his story became great fodder for a NYT article.
I agree that T comes off as a condescending jerk. Was Sylvia Plath just a "depressive"? |

This. My T and I talked about when a therapist has to go through the grieving process for a client as she had just been to a funeral of a patient. It was very, not sure of the word to use, but it brought me comfort and it also helped me understand a little more of the depth that at least my T can/does feel for me even though some of the time I have a hard time believing it. So while I think this article was in "poor judgement" I do agree with the quoted piece below.

Actually one of the great old ts - i searched and searched and finally found his book - my work with schizophrenics - i think his name started with a g - did sit and join his clients in their delusions and that is how he eventually reached them.
I think the problem is, we want to bring our ts into our maze, and they want to lead us out. |

My t is helping me de-hoard. That is my maze. I was talking figuratively leading me out of a maze. Sometimes you are so quick to disagree with me that i think if you gave yourself 5 seconds, you would see you dont not agree with me.
