51. VBT in History (1990s): The Empirically Supported Treatment Debate Rages On

The American Psychological Association commissioned a task force in 1993 to determine how to scientifically evaluate psychotherapy treatments. A controversy immediately ensued. Carrie digs into the literature on the history and effectiveness of empirically supported treatments to figure out what this suggests about best clinical practices. Note: this is not an ad for CBT. Pardon the slight background noise in Carrie's audio; this is resolved after eight minutes. Thank you for listening.
