Thanks for explaining your perspective. This is a reasonable take to have. This is a good summary of your thoughts (your summary):

> I think most of the advice in this article would be better applied to "how do I choose the right therapist" than "should I just completely rule out therapy."

FWIW, I read this advice as, "How do I choose the right therapy?" which is similar to what you're saying. I can see how someone reads this as the latter, however.

I think that's a fair reading, but I think choosing the right therapy is best done with the guidance of a good therapist. Of course, educating yourself first helps a lot, since you can better recognize if that therapist knows their stuff and can more productively discuss the options with them.
