You simply cannot be a psychologist or a psychiatrist if you have mental issues. Being a mentally deficient psychologist or psychiatrist is a paradox. You can't understand mental health if your brain doesn't work properly. Anybody who wants to become a mental health professional, must sign a legal document to self-certify own mental health. In XXI century this is still not happening. If you need help in mental health department, chances are that your doctor may be mentally impaired.

And depending on what kind of relationship these mental health practitioners have / had with their parents , determines if they feed the client " it's all your parents fault why you are fucked up " etc,. and encouraging adult children to blame , hate and put out of their life , their bewildered parents.. . Yea a bad psychoanalyst can do more harm ... Grrr.

I'm not sure what point you're trying to make here. A lot of mental health issues come from poor parenting.
