    Thank you Craig for an interesting and informative response; however, I take issue with the following:

    While the therapist may be creative, there is great risk that the therapist's creativity will have nothing whatsoever to do with their client's issues. A counselor may be offering interpretations of the client's early recollections or present predicaments that are more reflective of their issues.

    Subjectivity seems to be an Achilles heel?
