Subject: RE: BS: psychotherapy/counselling
If you are planning on having some, read up on the type of pschotherapy practiced and see if it the sort of thing you are looking for. Someone who wants to look for repressed childhood causes for their misery will be very disappointed by cognitive therapy. I think though CBT is usually thought of as the most effective, a lot comes down to the skill of the therapist regardless of which tradition they are coming from.
