Perhaps their own experiences as consumers colors their choices of treatment methodologies more than has been given credit. For example, my own experience as a participant in “energy psychology” methodologies has given me a positive perspective on their uses. Interestingly, while there are studies about energy psychology which suggest positive outcomes — recently the American Psychological Association issued a decision to decline including Energy Psychology as a recognized field for continuing education.

I couldn’t agree with you more, and have written a blog post on the same subject at http://www.ocdla.com/blog/evidence-based-psychotherapy-196. It’s shocking how many psychotherapists have come out against this study.

Probably not surprisingly, I certainly agree with the article and your comments. Psychiatrists are even less likely to be trained in or to correctly practice CBT. The benefits have been obvious for at least 4 decades, and I am disappointed its use still remains so limited.
Hope you are doing well!
Best, Alan
