When is Quantitative Evidence Actually Useful for Day-to-Day Psychotherapy Practice? Why Unsystematic Qualitative Evidence Reigns Supreme
In this article, I will argue that quantitative evidence is not very useful to the practicing psychotherapist and instead most day-to-day clinical decisions are based on unsystematic qualitative evidence. I imagine this argument will be obvious to some in clinical practice and considered blasphemy against clinical science for others. It is a realization I have […]

Abuse in Academia
History of Abuse in Academia and Universities Academia has a long-standing history of allowing dangerous, and potentially unlawful, behavior to continue without significant intervention.

The Quest for Evidence-based Training
“Evidence-Based” Training? Research is important in the scientific field of psychotherapy, where we like to think of ourselves as “scientist-practitioners” who provide “evidence-based practice” (Overholser, 2012). However, when it concerns our professional training, this research emphasis appears to be conveniently forgotten. Therapists tend to spend many hours of their career in professional training, not only […]

Multi-Theoretical Training as Responsive Treatment
Context Before psychotherapy, there often comes a phone consultation. When I ask prospective clients how they felt about prior therapy, the most common account is of a therapist whom they regarded as a kind, non-judgmental listener, but not much else. They wonder if they were properly challenged, if there could have been more guidance, or […]
