Abstract
Clinical decision making by psychiatrists and informed consent by patients require knowledge of evidence-based psychotherapies (EBPs) and their indications. However, many mental health professionals are not versed in the empirical literature on EBPs or the consensus guideline recommendations derived from this literature. The authors compared rigorous national consensus guidelines for EBP treatment of DSM-defined adult psychiatric disorders-derived from well-conducted randomized controlled trials and meta-analyses and from expert opinions from the United States, United Kingdom, and Canada-to create the Psychotherapies-at-a-Glance tool. Recommended EBPs are cognitive-behavioral therapy, family therapy, contingency management, dialectical behavior therapy, eye movement desensitization reprocessing, interpersonal psychotherapy, mentalization-based treatment, motivational interviewing, peer support, problem-solving therapy, psychoeducation, short-term psychodynamic psychotherapy, and 12-step facilitation. The Psychotherapies-at-a-Glance tool summarizes the indications, rationales, and therapeutic tasks that characterize these differing psychotherapies and psychosocial treatments. The tool is intended for use in clinical teaching, treatment planning, and patient communications.
