Subject: [K-list] Conversation With A Psychologist
From: David Bozzi

Had a conversation with a psychologist. Apparently the approach of this field is largely
talking and exposing 'schemas'. (aka mental constructions or patterns) I remarked, 'No one
has ever thought their way out of depression.' He strongly disagreed. I proposed perhaps the
talking is an aspect of the healing but there's more. There's healing on an energy level
beyond the intellect. Intellect is just a small part of it. He said what I was talking about
was 'philosophy'.

Is it just me, or is the general approach of today's psychology naive and limited?

The sense I got was that if something is not within the realm of the rational (very
limited) than it is not valid.

I'm writing this, I suppose, because it disturbs me somewhat, that a field that is dedicated
to healing depression seems so antediluvian.
