Despite what literature has led us to believe, is there really a concrete way to determine or study the scientific effectiveness of therapy? How can you put emotions into statistics? I'm not sure we currently have an effective solution @drwilliamsharp.bsky.social

While CBT might offer a quick fix (only 12 weeks) and is perceived as more scientific, psychoanalysis might offer more opportunities for long-term remission... interesting @drwilliamsharp.bsky.social

Some therapists are moving towards a medical model of sharing their session notes with patients. Within a profession that focuses on intangible concepts such as feelings, which I believe still remains far away from medical understanding, we should remain cautious about this idea. @drwilliamsharp
