“My Experience with Owen Lugar”
I went to Owen Lugar, many years ago, because I wanted to learn ways of dealing with my poor self-esteem. It was one of the biggest mistakes I ever made in my life. He was very cocky, insensitive, uncaring and outspoken. I tried to explain how I felt towards him, since he wanted me to be honest, but he did not take criticism well. Week after week, he yelled at me and criticized me harshly, and many times I left his office feeling angry, depressed, and worthless. On one occasion, right after my grandmother's death, without any sympathy, he quickly said he was sorry and then went on criticizing me, just as usual. On another occasion, I finally developed enough courage to tell him my father had molested me. His response was that he didn't believe me, even though, I never lied to him. I'm not sure why I worked with him. I believe it was because my self-esteem was so low that I felt I deserved his harsh treatment. Over the years, I met former patients of his that had similar experiences with him. Talking with them, and working with an empathetic therapist, has helped me deal with the horrendous experience I had with Owen. I would not recommend that you seek Owen's "help."
