< ....and throw in some Jung, Rollo May, Eric Berne, NLP, and even Freud (conflict theory). Don't leave out Piaget, Anthony Robbins, Dr. Phil, and the "Big Book" of 12 steppers.> So would it be more fair to say that you don't feel all therapy is a bad habit?
< I cringe at the words "all" or "nothing". I don't trust absolutes.> But that your orientation would be more CBT or Reality Theory (is that right? It might be Choice - William Glasser, I think) than analytic or relational?
< I suppose I am so eclectic that I don't look very good next to a label. I encourage decision making that produces "Beautiful Outcomes". Aesthetics cannot be fully devoloped by feelings alone. Logic must be working in concert with feelings for the best results.
> ...therapy also provides a bit of ego glue.
< Your husband is in trouble now! Ego glue? I think I'm falling in love......Rod
