Psychoanalysis and therapy is a powerful and effective tool in the hands of responsible, evolved and compassionate professionals with integrity and spiritual wisdom.

We have encountered the following problems with some of these therapists. It is important for people with traumas and children with issues to note before sending them to therapy.

1. Integrity issues -

A. therapist using session time to watch movies/shows on their phone knowing that the parent is not allowed inside the sessions area. Fortunately home sessions because of lockdown helped parent spot this.

B. If the child patient logs off, therapist on many occasions doesn't inform the parent and finishes session well ahead of 51 months time. Again, parent would not have known about this if not for the lockdown.

2. Using theories of psychoanalysis to his or her advantage. For example, suggesting online sessions when they are unable to do the sessions live because they move cities or if they are profesionally travelling while on other occasions refusing to provide online sessions when the patient is unwell or incapable to physically attending sessions. And in addition charging them for it.

3. When confronted with the above, uses the patient psyche or baggage as an excuse to 'analyse' the problem rather than deal with these as basic matters that lie outside of therapy. ** ** **** ******* *** ******* **** **** ******** **** ** ******* * ******* *** ****** **** ***** *** ****** ** **** There are hygiene factors that should set the framework for therapy which should lie outside the control of the professional himself/herself. This will deter behaviors that are exploitative and immoral.

** ********** ***** *** ********* ** ******** ******* **** ** ***** ************* *** **** ** *** ******** *** **** ***** ** *** **** *** ***** **** **** *** ****** Besides, they are not committed to self growth and spiritual growth that should eventually lead to greater empathy and compassion. A blind side that makes them tunnel visioned and make them like cult followers completely brainwashed into seeing their method as flawless.

I would recommend extreme caution before engaging professionally with your therapist. Please make sure you do enough background checks. A good therapist is someone who can combine powerful psychoanalytic tools with spiritual and emotional wordly wisdom, compassion and empathy. In the hands of such a person, psychoanalysis is a practice that can flower. In the hands of the wrong person, one ends up with a damaged patient.
