There's nothing wrong with being paid.
Everyone deserves money. If you're giving undivided attention to 30+ individuals per week you need to be paid for it. Otherwise you wouldn't have the time or energy.
Your replies to me have devolved into just "LOL" which I find pretty dismissive. Maybe you're just out of stuff to say.
The Sopranos shrink was just a lot of bullshit for the sake of the plot. The Kevin Spacey movie was really good and shows how psychiatrists don't know everything, but the good ones I know are well aware they don't know everything. I never saw 6 feet under. It's a shame that most people's information comes from pop culture rather than better sources.
Anyway I really don't understand all the hate for psychology. It's the ONLY socially respectable place people can go to work on real, life-changing issues these days, and while therapists are flawed individuals like anyone, as a whole they do a tremendous amount of positive good.
P.S. Movies do not give good depictions of the therapeutic process. Even the most accurate movies typically have major distortions for the sake of entertainment, e.g. In Treatment which is probably the most accurate show about therapy but has to do big embellishments for the sake of TV.
