Does conventional psychology in actual fact cure anyone?
Where else is there help for mental/emotional illnesses?
Answers:
There is no doubt that massaging a mental problem does assist. If there were no help next god help us, legalize all drugs.
The problem near conventional psychology is the money issue. If there were certified counselors that one could have almost unlimited access too and get hold of personalized attention you would see much, much better results. This is what I do.
So, with that said, the psychologists are being held hostage by the health insurance companies that set the number of visit to a bare minimum and problems never really get the attention they need.
Then, you own the same situation with medication. Pshcyologists can get an initial diagnosis on a soul by Psych meds are very hard to get right and everyone have different reactions and they have mental illnesses which makes their feedback unreliable contained by many situation, so it is a catch 22 with the Psychiatrists who are busy seeing 40 patients a hours of daylight to pay off medical bills or getting rich.
The system is flawed, but it is flawed because of a healthcare system in america to be exact anti counseling because of the large religious base that says God can cure adjectives these emotinal issues and so they are armchair quarterbacks that actually cause more issues.
People who are not certified, have done internships and are benevolent individuals should not be giving mental health advice.
This is the problem and I hope with the tentative healthcare initiative the system will change and as society embraces the relatively new counseling paradigm that we will hold better results.
Remember, no one went to a psychologist 35 years ago and if you had a mental condition issue like depression or suicidal ideation you were mostly ignored or put contained by an asylum.
Just another example of our greedy broken health care system.
It has nought to do with conventional psychology which has embraced various non conventional measures as it grows.
Hope this helps,

See Smith & Glass, (1984?). They compared the value of various therapies. All helped, but more so for different disorders perspectively. Source(s): M Ed.
