> I still think it's a bit limiting, but I don't suppose that matters. You *will* explain in the introductory paragraph though, won't you? I remember times, as Judy reminded me, that the conversation was on psychological matters rather than strictly therapy. Defense mechanisms, dissociation, etc.
I agree with Dinah. Where does it leave subjects that are not strictly about therapy? It seems this would be like changing Psycho-Babble to Psycho-Babble Effexor just because there have been days where it seemed that that was the only thing on that board. I've been hoping that with time the subject matter on psychological babble would get broader not narrower. If the name is restrictive some of us will just ignore that (with a creative rationale about how UFO's really are a form of therapy or the like) but it will turn others away before they even read your introduction.
