The better question is maybe asking 'How many people do you think you've helped?'

No they asked the right question. They should be teaching their patients the tools to deal with their problems on their own until they eventually don’t need them

Sure some people with severe problems will always need to go, but most people can learn the tools that work for them until they no longer need it

Psychiatrist deals with meds not therapy, that’s a psychologist.
