Debunking Some Myths About Good Therapists

  1. A good therapist attended an excellent university. Training is important, but it doesn't guarantee that a therapist is effective.
  2. A good therapist has a doctoral degree. Many therapists have a master's degree and yet they are highly effective.
  3. A good therapist has written numerous books. Just because someone is a prolific writer doesn't mean that she's an effective therapist.
  4.  A good therapist uses only scientifically validated techniques. Research shows that techniques have little to do with effective therapy.
