my opinion: think there's 2 types of theapy, talk theapy that you just can vent emotions, and learn more about yourself in general, then others are more goal directed like CBT which more of self imrovement, psychodynamic is good theapy....i did when i was 17 with the most best therpist that i will never forget, he listned to everything i said, and was compassionate....i felt so free to tell my feelings, but then when i had to rehab 4 years later....they used congnitive behavioral therapy....and it was systematic therapy for the people in the room that they where doing teachings....not individuel counseling, they use the term "us" or "we" and tend to refer to "out disease" or "our pain" and that gets on my nerves because i am not a part of the others, and they don't about me....
my own view is to plan out your life, write down the emotions and the things that cause intense pain, and then come up with a self made improvement plan, no money, no therpist, but i do have to have support other than myself, babble....and talking deep inside the heart....
