Ed, I too had many clients who were in the "mental health business". Most of them were still deeply wounded. I wouldn't have recommended them to anyone. I knew more about their personal lives and views than most, hairdressers and bartenders know.

I have a theory about that. I think that neuroses are mental scar tissue that should be left in place if not causing real harm. Mental health specialists not doing this probably cause much more psycho-damage than if they had not gone there. And psychiatrists have to undergo a mental dumpster dive called deep analysis which very few of us are mentally tough enough to undergo. And from reports I hear most of them appear to not be that tough.
