Are counselors and therapists prostitutes? A dialogue
Philosophy in the Contemporary World 7 (4):33-42 (2000)
Abstract
An age-old dilemma in philosophy—think of Socrates and the Sophists—concerns the taking of money in return for wisdom. Or rather in return for a shared search; in return, that is, for philo-sophia. The core of this same dilemma re-emerges in psychotherapy. Can it be right to take money for providing the kind of love, support, wisdom etc. which therapists and counselors attempt to provide?Author's Profile
