You’d probably be shocked and horrified to learn how little therapeutic practices were actually backed by science across the years. These ideas also don’t go away either. You can still find therapists and psychologists who are super into Freudian cocain bullshit.

Then there’s a lot of new age stuff. I mean basically anybody can say anything about human psychology and get an audience.

So that’s like, the base everything is built on. So we differentiate tested new ideas or reaffirmed ideas from all the noise.
