Perspectives on response-able psychotherapy: Rebuttal to "Emotionality and irrationality in psychotherapeutic fads."

Addresses R. M. Jurjevich's (see record 1979-29031-001) confusion of bad therapy with therapies that may promote emotional release. Jurjevich's classical leanings are noted and addressed as an inadequate model or view of people. The present author believes Jurjevich's article was misleading, and in its failure to responsibly educate, was unfit for publication.
