The interview with Zerka Moreno brings back many memories. I first met Jacob Moreno when he taught at NYU in the early 1950's - not mentioned on the internet. I used to attend his Friday sessions at the Architect's Bld in NYC. As a sociologist, his importance to clinical practice is, of course very important but his importance to sociometry is rarely emphasized. Bales, Borgatta, and a host of others, expanded on Moreno's thinking in expanding sociology.
In any case, I used to wisecrack that Moreno dreamt to the day when his picture would replace that of Freud on the wall. They both deserve to be up there.

Just read Shades of Gray article. My reaction is one of appreciation as I have encountered similar feelings of being 'rudderless' in my own work in prison where gray was and is sometimes all there can be. My deepest appreciation to the author and to psychotherapy.net for sharing the real gray experiences of others with us, thus making it a slightly less lonely place.

While I find this article [on Gurus and Snake Oil] interesting, I also have to say that you have an interest in bashing these self-help "Gurus". Another words you're playing for the other team. I find it hard to beleive that EVERYTHING that they say is false. And having listed to some of these people, I can say that in fact they have improved my life.

Shades of Gray was a touching article. However, I'm appalled the client could not find a therapist to take her because of liability issues! Isn't failure to treat a liability issue?

I loved Palumbo article, Hollywood on the Couch, and was drawn to it after attending his workshop at the recent CAMFT conference at the LAX Marriott Hotel. I bought Palumbo's book Crime to Crime and am reading it now and enjoying it immensely. Thank you for sharing your wonderful wit with the rest of us.

Through my research, I found your interview with McGoldrick online and feel this interview will provide valuable information to our staff about Monica McGoldrick. It is phenomenal!

I want to thank Randall Wyatt for the interview with Owen Renick, MD on psychotherapy.net. As a social worker working with very resistant and/or discouraged clients I enjoy reading something that helps me with my work to understand both myself as a counselor and my clients as people. I look forward to reading future articles and interviews on psychotherapy.net.

I found your website for the first time last week. In fact, I may have noticed it earlier but not really made the effort to read the stories and interviews offered. Can I congratulate you for the content and form of your site? Whenever I get a bit distraught after work or just want to relax a while I will flip thru those interviews and articles and find great satisfaction and inspiration reading them. In addition, I've placed my first order for DVD material which looks interesting. Best wishes, Bruce

I read Psychotherapy in China: Western and Eastern Perspectives as a handout from my therapeutic communication professor. I was struck by how much Dr. Myler absorbed Chinese culture. I was saying mentally "this guy has got it." I also appreciate Dr. Tong's suggestions on being a therapist seeing clients from different cultures and how to be culturally competent.
I am a single child, yes one of those born in the early 80s. I was born in Beijing and received a good education. I was majoring in law in college in China and got my masters in law at University of Wisconsin Madison. I see the increasing stress among the Chinese people, especially young people, the change of family structure, values, the nonexistence of a trust system, and the changing roles of women. I personally think that Chinese women and the younger generations are more open to new forms of psychotherapy. I can sense the Chinese people’s thirst for new theory, new methodology and new ways. They are trying to seek out help in their healing process.

As a current patient who advocates for the Patient's Voice to be heard in the first person both in the consulting room as well as on the written page (electronic and otherwise), the interview with Owen Renik was indeed refreshing and most moving in its expression of his passion and dedication to empowering the voice of the patient. When I read his book, "Practical Psychonanlysis," the notes I took that began spilling out of the margins became the basis for much good material in my own analysis. I emailed my therapist who was quite familiar with Renik's work, and said something like "I am inhaling this stuff!" As my therapist "treats" me much in the same relational manner as Renik advocates, my "discovery" was put to good use. I am wondering if sites like this one can encourage participation on the part of patients who would benefit from learning more about the process in which they are engaged - by both listening to, and contributing to, the ongoing outreach that has become the signature of the "new", but not-so-known-yet psychoanalysis.

I have been doing psychotherapy for over 35 years and have come to practice very much the way Owen describes in the outstanding interview with Wyatt. Prior to reading it I was not familiar with his work. I read the excerpt on the site and plan to check out the book. Thanks so much!

I appreciated the article on managing O.D.D. I am a psychology student currently employed as a resource room paraeducator in a middle school. It seems that every other student has this dx in their I.E.P., but many of us are in the dark as to how to apply positive behavior management interventions.
Thanks,
