I've experienced the therapy system as sort of a giant dysfunctional family, where it's not ok to talk about systemic issues and patterns. Lot of secrecy, lot of denial.
Anyone reading this forum (or other forums, blogs) can plainly see that: therapy can be addictive, therapy harms a significant number of people, the positive effects tend to be palliative and tapering or stopping creates problems, and transference/attachment scenarios tend to trap people.
