Mental stealth

Random quote of the day:

“Research indicates that a doctor’s confident attitude assists in the healing process.  Thus for a therapist to be maximally effective, he must believe in his method, but if a technique is objectively worthless, the therapist must fool himself before he can help his patient.  Deception and self-deception are at the heart of the psychotherapeutic process.”

—George P. Hansen, The Trickster and the Paranormal
