Herbert M. Holt, M.D. an iconoclastic psychotherapist challenges his own profession...patients whose favorite pastime is "therapy shopping"...the concept of being your own best friend...Transcendental Meditation and other forms of "new" consciousness...and the "idealistic belief that human behavior comes in a bottle, labeled either good or bad."  Dr. Holt suggest that many people suffering from nothing more than boredom approach psychotherapy as they would a beauty salon-they come to have their psyches shampooed, touched up, teased and primped."  Not everyone cautions Dr. Holt, needs the help of a therapist to learn the secret of self-realization; many of us are capable of learning through the trial and error of living.  And it is only in the real world, in our relationships with others, he believes, that we truly "find ourselves."  "An individual in an encounter group will only find a laboratory artifact of himself." In our haste to rubber-stamp behavior either "good" or "bad" Dr. Holt says we miss the target we should all be trying to hit:  "to gain the insight that will help us make the soundest choices, and to live with them comfortably, if not ecstatically."
