I certainly would love to go to school and learn about it.
But my therapist shares the frustration of actually being a therapist, and I can't say I'd like that *at all*. Managed care, short term clients, court mandated clients or clients who come in because their spouse forces them to. Rejection, anger directed at you.
And I think he normally works with garden variety anxiety and depression with CBT. I have a feeling I'm one of his more difficult clients.
I think many of those of us who have had a good experience would like to be able to give someone else the same experience.
But the real world isn't always like that.
