My first instinct is to hate on this idea because it removes choice. But sometimes, even when given a choice, people don't help themselves. The ethical integrity of the therapist would have to be very strong though.
- detaro 11y agoWhat choice does it remove?
- swagmeister 11y agoI guess you're right, it adds choice, but softly discourages you from seeing an outside therapist. Why not just see the company therapist? There is also some moral hazard involved.
- andreyf 11y agoI think it's potentially more than just soft, as it could also lead to an in-group of people who are seeing the company therapist.
- andreyf 11y agoI think he meant that it implies that an employer can pick a single therapist for all of their employees, and that there may be perceived pressure to see that therapist over others. In reality it can take quite a bit of visiting different people to find a therapist one feels comfortable with.
