How would the fair Dr G deal with a person who was too prejudiced for her to stand and constantly blaming their disfunction on some minority group instead of trying to understand her proposed therapy? I am sure she has had people too violent to treat. Our counselor friend used to work with Charlotte Correctional, perhaps the most dangerous facility in Florida. (I saw a guy get killed there.) She said there were some inmates she was simply not comfortable being in a room with. She ended up getting out of there and moving to teaching. My wife spent a year as a therapist on a state fellowship at one of Florida's 650-bed "forensic" mental hospitals. I doubt there was any serious mental illness she did not encounter during her service there, including the sort of paranoia you described and worse, and after that she worked at a juvenile facility, a county mental health agency, and was the lead therapist at a large hospital in the Jacksonville area. She's seen everything. She's occasionally called as an "expert witness" in some *difficult* cases. At the state facility, she related the saga of an inmate/patient who told her that if she were released, she would head home and kill her mother and sister. So Dr. K advocated that it was not time to release the woman. She was overruled. The woman was released, went home, and killed her mother and sister.  When she worked at the county facility, she had court-assigned cases involving spouse/child beaters, and several of these fellows were considered dangerous. She had a button on her desk that if pressed would sound a buzzer and immediately open the door and allow the entrance of a very large, uniformed, and armed county deputy who would whisk the offender straight to the lockup. The guys I am talking about are drug gang hitters and all around hard core criminals who may have even killed someone in prison, not just your regular neurotic kill your brother in law folks. Was she at G. Pierce Wood? That was one of my projects when they renovated it. The guy said there were two levels of criminally insane there, people who killed their family and people who killed their family, cooked them and ate them. North Florida State Hospital, McClenney...west of Jacksonville, along I-10. |
