Abstract

The article discusses the film "You Hurt My Feelings" directed by Nicole Holofcener, which explores ethical dilemmas in therapy. The movie raises questions about the responsibility of therapists for their clients' progress, the use of non-directive therapy, and the impact of honesty on relationships. The article also highlights the importance of providing practical feedback and tools to clients, rather than just emotional support. Overall, the film serves as a teaching tool for therapists to debate the merits and drawbacks of different therapeutic approaches. [Extracted from the article]
