Social resonance - missing link between "emotion talk" and "rationality" in the helping professions

There is a hidden "war" in the helping professions. Antagonists are public discourses of mental disorders (former named as "neurosis"), the change from "talking cure" to "psycho-pills" and the influential debates what helps along with a resurgence of once-religious themes expressed in modern terminology. This war is not restricted to psychotherapy and social support of any kind, but touches relevant elements of medical practice, too. Antagonists fought for scientifically documenting that one's own approach - statistic vs. single case solutions, quantitative vs. qualitative methods, tape- and video-recording vs. casuistic narratives etc. - was superior, more helpful, cost-effective in the short term and accessible for many citizens. My method here is to confront examples of scientific effort from several sides in order to achieve a more precise idea of what is at stake in this war. And - what is missed.
