Don't get me wrong though, I'm a big believer in writing as therapy. This article just rubs me (maybe incorrectly) as parlaying self-therapy into advice-giving.

Potentially in this case, the fact that you interpreted the self-therapy as potential advice is a testament to the author's ability to write, at the very least. I don't think the two are mutually exclusive, not that you claimed for them to be. That being said, If anyone has links to topically similar management content, I'd love to read it.
