Hey! I never said a single word putting down CBT. I in fact called it :great" that you found it so helpful. I do in fact know that it can be extremely helpful, and I am all for it.
I was trying to point out that there are people here who need a longer term relationship with a therapist, and that analytically trained therapists can be ideal in providing us what is most helpful. When I say this, I don't mean. at all. that they are the only therapists who can do so , but they are extremely good at it.
When I Iook l back at our exchanges I do not see even a hint of my 'putting down" CBT therapy. I was attempting to put analytic therapy along side of it as another valuable modality. But, twice, you have put down psychoanalysis, all the while feeling, apparently, that you need to defend yourself from supposed attacks by me on CBT.
On this board, I would like to think that I am exchanging ideas and thoughts with someone who is thinking in a fair and accurate manner.
