I've never totally understood the ego strength concept, but I have inferred that it has something to do with tolerating stress and anxiety without falling to pieces.
Which doesn't mean that those with poor ego strength aren't suited to any sort of therapy. They just aren't suited to certain types of therapy.
My ego strength is poor, according to my therapist. I'd have to ask him if it's improved any with therapy.
