C.B.T. refers to a number of structured, directive types of psychotherapy that focus on the thoughts behind a patient's feelings and that often include exposure therapy and other activities.

认知行为疗法泛指多种结构化的指导型心理治疗，通常包括暴露疗法等。这些疗法侧重于探讨潜藏于患者感觉背后的思想和观点。

Instead, many patients are subjected to a kind of dim-sum approach — a little of this, a little of that, much of it derived more from the therapist's biases and training than from the latest research findings. And even professionals who claim to use evidence-based treatments rarely do. The problem is called "therapist drift."

相反，许多患者接受了东拼西揍的“大杂烩式”治疗。该方法并非基于最新的研究成果，反而更多地受到治疗师自身的偏见和培训的影响。更有甚者，那些声称采用循证治疗的专业人员也很少坚持他们所承诺的治疗方法。这一问题称为“治疗师偏移”(therapist drift)。

"A large number of people with mental health problems that could be straightforwardly addressed are getting therapies that have very little chance of being effective," said Glenn Waller, chairman of the psychology department at the University of Sheffield and one of the authors of the meta-analysis.

上述荟萃分析的作者之一，英国谢菲尔德大学(University of Sheffield)心理学系主席格伦·沃勒(Glenn Waller)指出：“许多患者本可以直截了当地解决自己的心理健康问题，却把大量时间浪费在几乎没可能奏效的疗法上。”
