I would argue that you still have issues if you are dependent on your therapist. I have rehabilitated sick squirrels (from time to time) (which is a perfect analogy for human psychiatric patients BTW - kidding). The goal however, is to get them back into nature. Hence, you have to be very careful of your procedure. The first two wanted to be my pet. With more rehabs however, we learned how to make them self sufficient.
Of course, it depends on the individual as well. There are certain personalities that are very dependent. Others are more independent.
