Therapy is not casting people to the lions in the coliseum, even if some do crave the limelight and temporary glory. We've lost confidence and confidentiality in psychotherapy.
Therapy is quieter, more private analysis of personal problems.
It's the little boy who tantrums while his parents unwittingly cower. It's the woman who talks a mile a minute. Her internal pressure fades as you both acknowledge her hints when she's angry at you. Then she more directly faces the stockpile of unacknowledged transgressions that have fueled her fire since childhood. These sorts of personal conversations don't happen in public arenas.
