essay about therapy
The writer of the article and the lecturer talk about whether bibliotherapy would be an ideal replacement for therapy sessions or not. The writer prefers bibliotherepy whereas the lecturer claims that live therapy sessions cannot be replaced by self-help books or bibliotherapy.
First, the writer claims that people struggling with emotional pain can find self-help books beneficial as they offer simple but reliable solutions. However, the lecturer states that very few people found bibliotherapy effective compared to the number of people who found live therapy sessions helpful. Furthermore, the lecturer mentions that self-help books do not provide any real solutions, hence people seeking help from those books keep on jumping from one book to another.
Second, according to the article the ideas presented in those books are original and authors speak from their own journeys. As a result, numerous people can relate with those ideas and find remedies to help themselves to deal with their emotional problems. The lecturer, however, asserts that the ideas presented in the books are not original instead modified. She, further, cites an example where a psychologist’s ideas were copied in one of the self-help books but they were claimed to be original.
Third, the writer claims that self-help books offer quick solutions and people can rapidly solve their issues after reading the books. On the other hand, the lecturer challenges this specific claim by stating that people reading these books become quickly optimistic about solving their problems but they remain hopeful for only a brief period of time. The readers feel they are progressing but they soon realize that the ideas in the books do not help them so they return to the point where they started. Thus, readers do not get the desired help from these books.
