Subject: Re: YAY more ethics of Other!


I am a client when I pay; you are the therapist. it is
not complicated. Exchange of services. R.D.Laing once
said that to be a therapist is to make oneself a zero;
he said it was similar to be a pro-stitute i.e. from
the latin as in One Who Stands in For.
C'est n'est pas plus complique que ca.
I love you
