We undertook an ambitious research effort to understand what the U.S. public knows about therapy, how they think and feel about it, and what they most want out of it. Using state-of-the-art consumer insights tools, we have completed in-depth qualitative interviews and a large quantitative survey.

• Our research has been published in a special edition of the journal Psychoanalytic Inquiry. Here is the abstract of our paper.

• Here is our Executive Summary, including recommendations.
