A curious thing happened to one of my psychiatric residents not long ago. One of his patients caught him off guard with a challenging question: “Have you ever been in psychotherapy yourself?”**********
It was an interesting question, and it made me wonder whether one could be a good therapist without having been in psychotherapy.
If the answer was no, it would appear to be at odds with what we do in the rest of medical practice.
