Abstract
Although many therapists in the public sector might feel overwhelmed, anxious, or defeated by the unpredictable and difficult situations of the patients they encounter, others find a way to feel involved and challenged by these situations. The public-sector therapist is much less isolated personally and professionally than therapists in private settings, and this greater involvement may generate the kind of support needed to deal with the pressures of treatment in public settings.
