A brief history of psychotherapy in graphic display.
Students of psychotherapy, faced with the variety of contemporary approaches, and their many major contributors, may find it difficult to see "the forest for the trees." If overwhelmed, they may uncritically limit their view to that provided by one or a few teachers, or even abandon the whole endeavor in favor of medication treatments. Three maps displaying a brief history of the psychotherapy, some of its major figures, and the primary contributors to 10 current methods, are presented. Potential uses for these maps in student education are discussed.
