Psychotherapy Process

What makes therapy work? Only techniques? Definitely not!

Image Description:

A person is depicted with a smiling face and eight arms, each holding a placard. The placards read "Trauma healing techniques", "JPMR and relaxation techniques", " Mandala therapy", "Hypnosis", "anger management techniques", "mindfulness tools", "assertiveness skills", and "self-care tips".  There is a piece of text underneath the person that reads, "Yay! My therapist has given me all these techniques." Below this is the person's face with a dissatisfied face saying, "But why am I still not feeling good?" and there are three thought bubbles that read "Context?" "Process?" and "Systemic issues?"
