Re:Science and Pseudoscience

We are now revisiting concepts rooted in religion and mysticism in many was, but strikingly so in psychology. There's a renewed interest in the unconscious mystical mind (don't want to give Freud all the credit). So we see the emergence of EMDR and other forms of therapy that attempt to access what was once the domain of religion and spirituality. It comes from the fringe....

I have nothing against psychotherapy or EMDR. What I have a problem with, is practitioners pawning off psychotherapy or any other healing art as being scientifically based, which clearly it is not. And behaving unethically.
