I think you are being too hard on yourself–I enjoyed The Treatment enough to draw me to your other writing (looking forward to A Good Talk in particular), and I wouldn’t feel that if your book struck me as at all disingenuous.

In fact, I think there’s something off and maybe even sort of uncomfortable about all my writing–some kind of self-consciousness and disingenuousness which embarrasses me all the time.
But again, thanks for the pixwels.
