For me, brutality in therapy I believe to be a much more sinister, complicated, and mixture of motivational actions by a therapist who is not using therapy or techniques to brutalize his patients, but is simply using his or hers own selfish humanity to do so. Brutality is a purposeful attack on another being. It is not a mistake or an accident. One does not have to be a therapist to be brutal. Ignorance of the attack would make it innocent of being a brutality.
Ignorance is a human experience.
Ignorance is not evil and it is not good. Kinda over beating this horse now, but I just have to express this last statement. Jesus says His children die from lack of knowledge. My soul leads me to follow that He means ignorance of both and not just one or the other. But that is another story.
