I have a friend who is training to be a psychiatrist and sometimes a strange gleam appears in her eye, she bends towards me and says in her professional voice: "And how did that make you feel?" What an interesting post.

People have told me that I should be a therapist, but I just can't stand people who KNOWS how to fix their problems and won't. They'd rather whine about it. Cheers. Thanks for sharing with us.

I like the approach of a therapist with multiple tools, using what is best for a particular client.<br /><br />Thanks for sharing :-) So THAT'S what a men's activist therapist is!

I see about 15 individual clients a week and run a group as well. I'm getting my master's in mental health counseling, and this is the internship portion of my degree. I graduate in December, and then have 1500 more hours as a registered intern before I apply for licensure. <br /><br />Basically, I still conduct therapy and act as a therapist in every way, I just don't have my license yet. It's like the residency portion of med school for a doctor. I'm a therapist at a domestic violence center. I see about 15 individual clients a week and run a group as well.
