Empirically Supported Treatments and APA Ethical Code
Evidence-Based Practice, Empirically Supported Treatments, and the APA Ethical Code
Increasing your knowledge of universal and orientation-specific skills is your first step to becoming a competent psychotherapist. You also must be able to research and evaluate appropriate empirically supported and evidence-based practice interventions for use with your clients' presenting problems.
Empirically supported treatments are those specific treatments that have undergone research and scrutiny and have been shown to be effective in treating certain disorders or conditions. Engaging in evidence-based practice means that you approach your work with a scholar-practitioner mindset. This approach includes seeking to find evidence in the literature or field for treatments and keeping up with the profession in general, understanding and being aware of new information that is emerging, and understanding trends in the field. Evidence-based practice is more of a mindset or general approach to your work, whereas the term empirically supported treatments refers to specific treatment interventions.
