Countertransference and Retribution e-bog

At rise:A therapist and a patient are having a discussion in the therapist's office. TherapistFrom your phone call, I get the impression that you want tocomplain about a previous therapy, or to be precise, a psychotherapy,and, more specifically, a therapy with the designation "e;talk therapy,"e; like psychoanalysis. PatientActually, I want to complain about three or four of them, and alsocomplain about some talk therapists that I only saw once. TherapistBefore you go on, I'd like you to know, that as far as I am concerned,many talk therapists can be ineffective and, unfortunately, can sometimeseven do harm to patients. There are some good ones but you probablycouldn't afford one of them. I like to think of myself as one of the goodones. You're here because I like to help people like you, who seemed to havehad a difficult time in therapy. In fact, this is my mission in life.
