Reply to "Looking for: Therapy trends - Statistics by country"

This is a question I would take to a reference librarian....because I have no idea where you would look to find these statistics already compiled.

Here in the States, I think all therapists have to be licensed and maybe they have to officially label their therapy method/approach for their state licensing board. However, just looking online, I've noticed that a therapist will often list many different methods (the eclectic approach), so I don't know how you would sort that out statistically.

I've read that in the U.S. most psychiatrists don't get to do talk therapy or psychoanalysis anymore, because insurance companies won't pay them for it. So I guess many psychiatrists just do medication consults now.
