Pop psychology as science fiction.
It's a bit disappointing.
I prefer The Day The Earth Stood Still to this one.

Psychoanalysis was the only form of therapy 50 years ago. Today it seems to be a New Age fad.

The Day The Earth Stood Still: Similar to Spock lecturing Kirk on how barbaric humans were.
