dwarf therapists, not the ultility ;p

My leader is always too busy to meet with disgruntled dwarves.  You can add as many therapists as you need to deal with your individual tantrum spiral prevention needs. ;p

Alternatively, you could change the name to

      [NAME:bitch:bitches]

it makes just as much sense.

Well, it would be nice for those post-mood bouts of depression when your best metalsmith just couldn't find one... stinking... shell...

Huh. I assumed it was still the Baron. Guess I'm not too conversant with the aspects of fortress life that don't involve killing, or digging for more things to kill.

I still think the philosopher should make a return to do the grief counselling.

The mayor also assigns the other nobles to their positions (where thats applicable).

Urist Mcbadmood: I can't take it anymore doc, after my wife and best friend died I just haven't been the same.

Therapist: Have you tried drinking more?

Step One: We admitted we were powerless over alcohol - That Elves and cats are completely unmanageable.
Step Two: Pitched the furballs and pointy ears into a pit of magma.
Step Three: Got blissfully drunk.
Steps Four - Twelve: Drink More.

Why not make therapists [NO_EMOTION] so they can't rage after getting yelled at?

Because the therapist is an entity position and [NOEMOTION] is a creature token. It's like "why not to attach wings to a time?" :) These are two totally unrelated things.

Make a third caste of super-caring dwarves with awesome social skills just for this. Or don't, that is probably a terrible idea.

I personally decided to include it in the Chief Medical Dwarf's job and call him Chief Therapist.
