Download or read book The Death of Psychotherapy written by Donald A. Eisner and published by Bloomsbury Publishing USA. This book was released on 2000-01-30 with total page 249 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Psychologist-attorney Eisner puts psychotherapy on trial by critically examining its effectiveness through the lens of the scientific method. From psychoanalysis to cognitive-behavior therapy as well as the 500 or so other psychotherapies, there is not a single experimental study that supports the effectiveness of psychotherapy over a placebo or religious healing. Using both case examples and clinical research, this book challenges the conclusion that there is empirical support for the notion that psychotherapy is effective.
