More like cooperation than rivalry. But you are right that the "talk therapists" typically are educated as (practicing) psychologists. Unless they are also MDs they cannot write prescriptions, and work together with those who can (when needed). Sort of like surgeons and anesthesiologists, although the analogy is weak, of course.

Many professional therapists are working online now. There are advantages and disadvantages of each approach. Sometimes it is better for a patient to be at home in a comfortable situation during a session. Sometimes visiting the therapist in an office provides a welcome change of scenery.

In some cases, such as certain addiction clinics, the patients are required (by law, if I remember correctly) to visit the clinic, at least for some sessions.

"It depends"

First, are we talking about what _is_ or what _should be_?

Second, what is the business logic behind the choice of Date versus Time to represent data (a data point or a segment) in the timeline? And is that logic consistent with the original design, and therefore with how the data have been collected?

There is more, of course. Lots more, some touched upon in the article and comments.

Well if that's the case then the interview process was not well put together.

Yes it is subjective, that's the point.

What a horrible advice. People absolutely do not have to share your attitudes and priorities. And you are saying it to a person just starting a career! I am glad to see the majority of the comments have been supportive and constructive, like HN usually is.
