I don't agree with it completely either. I also don't think it's necessarily a good idea or the best way to handle things, implanting the thought in suggestible, conflicted, vulnerable, etc. etc. people (some of whom may need more than anything else to learn to draw lines and stand up for what they believe is right) that when something doesn't sit right with them, it's usually their "own stuff." Of course that's true for everyone sometimes (and more of the time for some than others). We're humans. If I graduate from shrink school does that mean that anytime someone is annoyed with me or disagrees with how I do things or if I do them consistently, it gets to be "their stuff?"
