The Great Psychotherapy Debate 2.0

What is psychotherapy? Does it work? If so, how? Is it a diagnostic-specific treatment like an antibiotic, or is it more like an aspirin?
Nearly 70 years after Eysenck's claim that psychotherapy not only did not work but made people worse, the debate continues.
In this conversation, two of the world's leader researchers, Bruce Wampold and John Christopher Muran examine and debate the evidence. They agree on some issues and disagree on others. The discussion was organized and led by Helene Amundsen Nissen-Lie, practicing psychotherapist and professor in clinical psychology at University of Oslo (Norway).
What is clear is that a new way of understanding of the work psychotherapists do is desperately needed. Indeed, the future of the field depends on it.
