is complete honesty essential?

Posted by DustBuster on February 11, 2005, at 20:32:35

I'm reading "The Road Less Travelled", and Dr Peck says that for talk therapy to be successful, patients must be completely open and honest about themselves and their experiences to their therapist. There are parts of my past I don't ever want to revisit, much less reveal. It makes me thing I'm just wasting my time and money in therapy, given that I'm never going to talk about it. Has anyone else ever run into this situation? Is it possible to get *ANY* benefit from therapy if you're not willing to be 100% open and honest?
