What guidelines exist for mental health therapy and treatment?
I have heard that mental health treatment is highly unregulated. Cruel practices such as reparative therapy and electric shock treatment are practiced on patients without evidence to back up their safety and effectiveness. What guidelines exist for mental health treatment? What is allowed, and what is not?
Actually it is highly regulated among licensed professionals. The problem is that anyone can call themselves a “therapist” without education or licensure. Just like anyone can call themselves a “life coach, job coach,” etc.
LMFT’s (Licensed Marriage and Family Therapists) and LP’s (Licensed Psychologists) have ethical guidelines they must follow or risk losing their license. I don’t know where the LMFT’s get theres, but you can go to APA.org to see the code of ethics for psychologists.
