The problem is that you haven't a clue as to what a professional mental
health counselor does, or what the purpose of therapy is, or that
counselors typically are not judgmental. A professional counselor
typically does not turn down a person in need. The counselor's personal
beliefs are kept...personal.

Most counselors at the top of their profession who have been practicing
a long time have seen and heard every aspect of the human condition, and
I suspect a lot of what they've encountered would scare the crap out of you.

If you want judgmental therapy, go get christian counseling.
Whatever your problem, jesus will solve it.

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.

I'll bet she paid her taxes down there too.
