In the past few decades, the treatment of psychological disorders has changed. While psychotherapy was once regarded as the treatment of choice for most psychological disorders, the use of psychotropic medications has now become commonplace. Although psychological research literature continues to suggest that some psychotherapeutic treatments are at least equally as effective as medications (for example, see Hollon, Thase, & Markowitz, 2002), many factors (for example, economic) propel the continued growth of the use of medications.
