True, but ditto for identifying there's no problem to begin with.

what if that's what the therapist is there to tell you? what if your problem is the false belief that you are sick and it requires a professional intervention to get you to accept that you are not?

What if your problem is the compulsive need to identify edge cases? What then? I'll tell you: someone will probably take your money to "treat" it.

what I described is not an edge case, btw. there are different goals of talk therapy but precisely none of them is "fundamentally change the makeup of your personality by talking to you" because that isn't actually possible.

I've asked a couple of therapists that I've worked with this question to gauge whether or not they are going to be useful to talk to: "am I your patient or your client?" if they say patient I walk away

Carl Rogers was one of the leading innovators of talk therapy, and championed what is sometimes called "client-centered therapy," so I thought your "patient/client" Q might be a probe to see if you were getting a Rogerian approach.

have browsed the wiki page now. yes, I seem to have stumbled into that without knowing who Carl Rogers was.
