It's a bit like speed dating, except you see a shrink or rather a series of shrinks:
Many receiving therapy became so engrossed in conversation that they
lost track of time. At one point, Lianne Stokes, the energetic emcee, a
freelance writer, became annoyed that a session had gone well past the
allotted time – about 30 seconds – and barked into her microphone:
“Move the line, people. Believe it or not, someone here has worse
problems than you do, if you can imagine.”
And the self-absorption/narcism takes the next step.
I agree with Akshay. At the end of a few minutes, you may not know whether you like the shrink, but you can likely tell is you really, really don’t.
How about more posts on making psychotherapy more efficient?
