And how can their deliberations be drawn on in the consulting room without therapy degrading into intellectual discussion? At any rate, this is all by way of saying what I don’t mean here by ‘morality’ - I don’t mean governance by oppressive mores - and by way of introduction to what I do mean by it - namely the domain of the virtues.
