I don't know if you remember when I had a little vent a few months back about this psychic reader who I felt was using unscrupulous methods to try and get me to be a client...which of course did not work.
Now suddenly she had produced a newletter which I have received without asking for in which she states:
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
"The question then is: “Are psychics also psychologists?”
Here’s my answer: “We’re not psychologists, but we do practice psychology!” I could even say that what we do is better than psychology!
Psychologists analyze people according to certain scales, codes they learn while in school, or which they acquire later on, while working at a company, a government agency, etc.
Psychologists don’t try to find out who you are. They only want to know if you correspond to what they believe is normal. If you don’t meet their criteria, they try to change your attitudes and your behavior. What they never try to do is make you be yourself!
....
A psychologist really has no idea who you are
I don’t only get one vision about you, I get many at the same time, depending on the lives that are being offered to you at any given moment.
That’s the difference between a psychic and a psychologist. A psychologist has no idea who you are, while I can read you like an open book!"
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Ok does that seem wrong to you too to claim to tell people they don't ever need professional help, even if you are psychic? And that all they need is you. Aren't we supposed to refer people with medical or legal problems to specialists. And someone who might need a psychologist, like a depressed person, need medical treatment.
First of all most of what she says about psychologists seems untrue and even if we are psychic can any reader really claim that they are better that psychologists and all you need is them. I mean there have to be people who truly do need professional treatment. That sounds dangerous to me, not to mention conceited to pass that message around.
This woman annoys me(sigh)
