The big problem with therapy is that it is too expensive to be available to most people. We need to find some viable alternative that doesn't depend on paying a very costly human to listen for an hour a week.

there are also a lot of quacks around. doesn't help that psychotheraphy really lacks a solid background in medicine tbh. we're only scratching the surface of the deep mind structures and issues stemming from there and how they all relate to trauma or even what trauma actually is and yet pretend like we can cure ailments talking people out of it.
