Why might using aggression as a therapeutic technique in psychological practice be ethically problematic?
Aggression is universally accepted in therapy contexts.
It could create an environment of fear or discomfort for clients.
Clients would become resistant to future sessions.
The method lacks a scientific grounding and therefore can't be utilized.
