Debunking The Authority Of The DSM
Non-Diagnostic Therapy: Diagnosis As An Offering For Exploration A common misunderstanding about our non-diagnostic therapy practice is that non-diagnostic means “no diagnosis” or “diagnosis = bad.” I’m not against diagnosis and not just because of insurance companies.
