Two things remain constant; therapy isn't always necessary to solve problems and it can often be expensive or frustrating. The latter usually occurs when you've entered into "therapy" with someone who isn't a good fit, isn't qualified or has led you to believe they really DO have good credentials. This can also lead to dependency and wonderful financial gain for the "therapist" or "Dr." as some of these people love to call themselves.
Try reading "How to Be Your Own Therapist" (McGraw-Hill, 2004) by Dr. Farrell, a real licensed psychologist who isn't afraid to look at the current situation with an unbiased eye.
