For decades, "eclectic" — using a variety of techniques — has been a putdown among therapists. Which is odd, since eclecticism is good in other areas of life. In this video, I talk about 4 words that are twisted to make a point in mental health.
For more on the misuse and over-application of the word "agnosognosia" (!), see my blog post: http://blog.stevenreidbordmd.com/?p=1700
