insitutes" is that it offers them a chance to change their title from social
worker to psychoanalyst. They practice "psychoanalysis" out of their
husbands'
offices in the evening, charging much less than the going rate, as they
have no
overhead and their spousal support limits their monetary needs.  This type
has
little interest in psychoanalysis as a body of knowledge, nor do they care
about
controversies or criticisms. They also have little to no experience working
with
severe mental illnesses, which should be a part of every therapist's
training.
There are non-social workers about whom the above is equally true.



Oh, so right, in addition to having relations with and/or marrying the
psychiatrists who then sponser them for the institutes and share their own
patients confidential records with these pseudo-analysts. This demeans the
lay analysts who have worked hard to achieve the title of "analyst" without
such relationships!
