'Funny Farms 101'
I have terrible news for these electronic therapy merchants and wannabe shrinks: a lot of things like dandruff, hangnails, backaches and genetically related chemical imbalances contributing to problems like bipolar syndrome don't respond well to conversation. You could talk about them until Hell froze over, and without the right medication, you'd still have an unadjusted nut on your hands. Admittedly poorer because of your fees, but an unadjusted nut all the same.
Therapy tends to work best with distraught, frustrated, and lonely housewives who can't get chosen to work it all out on reality TV shows for fun and profit, and actually believe in 'mind over matter' as a viable cure for lack of nookie or age spots and wrinkles. So you have to define your client base rather carefully.
And remember that the burn-out rate for shrinks is rather high, and about fifteen years or so is usually about as long as your career will probably last.
So it isn't a terribly smart idea to opt for working too cheaply.
