Abstract

What I missed in the article was any mention of the fact that in the outpatient setting, more than 70% of psychotherapy for children and adolescents is delivered by other methods, such as psychoanalytic and psychodynamic methods, rather than behavioral therapy alone. I would consider including these approaches as scientifically respectable, since psychoanalysis has been dealing with the theory and treatment of obsessive-compulsive disorders for more than 100 years. With regard to the present day it is worth mentioning that concerning psychodynamic therapies a discussion draft for a psychoanalytic guideline has been available since 2007 (Zeitschrift fur “Analytische Kinder- und Jugendlichenpsychotherapie,” issue 134, 2/2007).
