I am not finding fault with the practitioner's methods of helping the client. But when I was in thearapy I was the (rebel with/out a cause thinking I had a cause). My argument was I was not responsible for my emotional problem (it was always somebody else's problem). I understand that now. Even my thoughts were wrong I didn't want to take responsibility for my problem. It's just the thought about experience before method. pljames

In my later life I now understand how I was controlled by my emotions. I didn't understand them! Now I do! I now analyse all my thoughts to understand if it is a stimulus for a emotion. I now believe there is a time to be emotional (to a point) and not be because of couth. I wish I had learned that years ago. I have been chaos now I choose peace. Thoughts? pl

Memory and experiences create our emotional states be the past or present. Is enough being done to teach our children they can control there emotions? The three factors to me are understanding belief and action. Thoughts please? pl

@pljames your statement suggests a fundamental misundestanding of psychological therapies. therapy is an experience, the methods facilitate experiences, the teachings provided a variety of methods for facilitating a healing experience. there are many models of psychological therapies some are not as good as others, some are directive and prescriptive, some are non directive and experiential, some are collaborative and problem focused some are solution focused.
 
there are many ways of viewing one event, you had an experience of therapy which you were not satisfied with, this was your experience only. applying your individual experience to your understanding of all types of psychological therapy is making a generalisation. generalising is understandable it is how humans make sense of a vast and complex reality. but generalisations do not provide an accurate representation of reality.

I understand. My rationality leans toward individual understanding with related parts or generalities. Excellent point. I stand misunderstood. pl
