It's usually not a great idea, but it can be appropriate and effective if you are working with someone whose pride is a major barrier to them learning or changing or growing.
I'm a drug and alcohol counselor and this philosophy is atrocious in my opinion. Yelling at and demeaning people to "rebuild" them is abusive unto itself.
Perhaps. I've seen a lot of criminal thinking clients who just don't get it and who have an exaggerated sense if entitlement which is in alignment to your thoughts on pride.
