Why long-term therapy?

Posted by Dis Traught on February 5, 2007, at 13:23:03

Something that has baffled me on this site is the amount of time people appear to be spending in therapy. In my country, more than 2 yrs is almost unheard of, and if you stay in therapy for 2 yrs you are considered to have very, very serious difficulties. Here it's more like: get to the point, identify the problem, deal with it and then get on with it. Maybe that's too rational? What are the benefits of long-term therapy?
Anyway, one thing is for certain: People here don't form deep, long-standing one-sided relationships with their therapists.
