Here is a practical, creative answer to the criticism that psychotherapy focuses too much on individuals' pasts and problems. The Mindells bring the empathetic techniques of their psychotherapeutic background to volatile sociopolitical issues such as gay rights, racism and sexism, as they work with large, polarized groups toward truth-speaking and mutual understanding. "If you want freedom," says Arnold, "there's a price that you have to pay to get it: learning how to bear the difficulties and tensions that really do exist. Without paying that price, freedom doesn't exist." The astounding response to their work speaks of exciting possibilities for finding truth and healing on a larger social scale.
