I had a friend who's therapist basically "fired" them for "refusing to take mayerial steps to resolve your problems" when the therapist also admitted that all this persons problems seemed from poverty and the inability to resort to bourgeois solutions. Like sometimes being depressed and sad is like what you are supposed to be.
I think the new Matrix movie really drove home beautifully the contradictions of psychotherapy and how one of its biggest purposes is to process people who are so beaten down by their material reality back into the system so they can be good cogs.
