Therapists will fail to use evidence-based treatment even when they have the tools and training May be seen as pushing back on manualized treatments that do not seem to focus on the relationship sufficiently Therapeutic drift can happen when the therapist and client are not in agreement or clear on the goals for treatment Not sticking to the plan for treatment and failing to make progress Mislabeling of treatment interventions What factors contribute to therapeutic drift? Client factors include avoiding talking about treatment goals Lack of adherent training and understanding of the models Therapist factors include not identifying optimal treatment methods or structures upon which to build creative intervention Therapists doing what feels good to them versus what is best for the client Systemic factors including teaching too many theories without sufficient depth How can we mitigate the risks of therapeutic drift? Practice-based evidence Setting treatment plans and single session agendas Outcome measures and client feedback Intentionality versus convenience Assessing bias and where our negative feelings about EBPs come from Collaborating with the client Deliberate practice Consultation, ongoing supervision Resources for Modern Therapists mentioned in this Podcast Episode:We’ve pulled together resources mentioned in this episode and put together some handy-dandy links.

What Actually is Therapy?Curt and Katie chat about the confusing laws related to telehealth and other technologies that open up questions of how therapy is actually defined.

Rules surrounding knowing where your client is and safety depend on therapy happening concurrently. New types of therapy (like texting and asynchronous messaging) don’t have the same parameters to be able to identify what is supposed to be documented in therapy sessions.

Therapy versus coaching Therapy versus coping skills training What is therapy versus what is therapeutic Does the presence of a therapist make something therapy? What about continuity of care or coping/coaching calls when someone is traveling? Things that are called therapy and are not: retail therapy, conversion therapy What is billable to insurance?
