Adderall and antidepressants are typically prescribed for different disorders, so nothing's really contradictory there. Talk therapy (possibly combined with antidepressants to promote neuroplasticity) as a treatment for depression seems pretty well-accepted and grounded at this point.

Validates what is already a common assumption. Some ppl can guess at the complexities of a person’s problems while others with the same training and certification can be clueless. So much of care with psychology and psychiatry depends on patients being able to bring forth the important aspects of their problems for therapy. Many,many can’t/ & or won’t. In that case the effectiveness of therapy hinges on empathic, intuitive guesses of the clinician. We haven’t yet developed training that is effective for that. I think the science of the last 50 years was overly optimistic that it could be done. We felt we could train physicians, so we can train therapists in the very same way.
