I count myself most fortunate to have been living at this time, working in our profession, and to have chosen psychotherapy as a main interest, for it has been a period of quite extraordinary growth and constructive development. Exposed as one has been to such an exciting series of new discoveries, each following so hard on the heels of the last that one scarcely had time to absorb each new understanding and regain some equilibrium before it was upset again by the next wave of new ideas, it seems it would have been far more difficult to narrow down than to stay open.
