Historically, psychiatry has played a dominant role in psychotherapeutics, but recently, other mental-health professionals are challenging the role. This paper discusses psychiatrists' different conceptualization of problems and underlines the special contributions they are qualified to make because of their medical training. Patients should be free to choose the type of treatment approach--psychiatric or nonpsychiatric--that best serves their needs.
从历史上看，精神病学在心理治疗中一直占据主导地位，但最近，其他心理健康专业人员正在挑战这一角色。本文讨论了精神科医生对问题的不同概念化，并强调了由于他们的医学培训而有资格做出的特殊贡献。患者应自由选择最能满足其需求的治疗方法类型——精神科或非精神科。
