A Quote by Laura Wasser

Sometimes, just the act of venting is helpful. Counseling provides a safe haven for precisely that kind of free-ranging release: You can say things in the therapist's office, with the therapist present, that would be incendiary or hurtful in your living room.

The kind of caring that the client-centered therapist desires to achieve is a gullible caring, in which clients are accepted as they say they are, not with a lurking suspicion in the therapist's mind that they may, in fact, be otherwise. This attitude is not stupidity on the therapist's part; it is the kind of attitude that is most likely to lead to trust.

Carl Rogers

Sometimes people say I should see a therapist, but I don't want any therapist wrecking my weirdness.

Peter Wolf

All of my friends were seeing a therapist, and I thought something was wrong with me that I didn't see a therapist. So I went to a therapist to find out why I wasn't seeing a therapist. And it turns out I'm very screwed up. Thank God I found a therapist to tell me for $125 an hour.

Ellen DeGeneres

In California everyone goes to a therapist, is a therapist, or is a therapist going to a therapist.

Truman Capote

I've always been fascinated by how the past impacts the present. For the first half of my career as a novelist, I wrote psychological suspense mysteries. I wanted to be a therapist but was told that while I was a fine diagnostician, I would be a terrible therapist because I wanted to solve everyone's problems.

M. J. Rose

The gap between the inner and outer self is one I've found interesting, even essential, about the way we move through the world. In The Delivery Room, I enjoyed traveling back and forth between the perspectives of the patients and that of the therapist - with the irony that with your therapist, you are at least supposed to be your most authentic self.

Sylvia Brownrigg

If I had to pick out a therapist in a movie that I'd like to go see as a personal therapist, it would be Robin Williams in Goodwill Hunting.

Irvin D. Yalom

And I hope seeing a therapist becomes 10 times easier in the future. For me, once I came out of treatment, I got into a therapist and continued my road to recovery and health and happiness. But not everyone can do that. It's challenging to see a therapist when you work full-time, when you can't get an appointment within a week, and then by the time you do get one, maybe you feel like your "problem" has lessened and you don't bother to go in. It's about access.

Michael Phelps

I also have a degree in marriage, family and child counseling - I'm a therapist.

Stephen Furst

I didn't think I'd be a good therapist. I didn't think I could do both at the same time. Maybe some people can, but I wanted a bigger spotlight and I don't think that's right for clients to have a therapist who wants that kind of life.

Kelly Carlin-McCall

I don't have to lay on the couch and see a therapist because my therapist is in my paint brushes.

Abbey Lincoln

I don't have a therapist, so I use me as my own therapist when I'm making the music.

Tyler, The Creator

There's nothing wrong or weak about seeking a therapist. I have a therapist.

Dan Reynolds

There's a real careful line you have to walk there because your first job [therapist] is to create safety for the client to feel safe enough to turn their vision in towards themselves and their experience in the moment and to reveal things that usually carry a lot of shame or that kind of stuff around.

Kelly Carlin-McCall

My peoples told me they thought I should go talk to a therapist, and I went and talked to a therapist, and we let Vice record it.

I think I would want to be a therapist or sociologist. I love talking to people about their relationships and life problems, understanding where it comes from, and giving insight that's helpful. Also, it would be fun to just marry rich and vacation a lot. That's my real second choice.

Erin Foster
