Upon seeing the title, my first assumption was that it dealt with finances (affording therapy) and finding qualified therapists. So, I do think it is a poor title.
Second, the idea of 'recovery' is inaccurate, ill-defined, and not always helpful as others have noted. I expect, for myself that is--I'm using "I" statements here--to improve and continue to improve. In my case, do I recover from childhood abuse, years (o.k. a life) of mostly untreated or mistreated depression? Guess this is where radical acceptance comes in--I'm still trying to comprehend the concept.
