I studied/trained/worked psychotherapy in tandem with audio work. I far more enjoyed the audio work, so it prevailed. I have friends in the therapy business and also hear conflicting methods. Whilst I have a truly sincere soft spot for the 'talking cure', broadly, psychotherapy is at its most effective when applied in combination with other and varied help - alone it is not so effective. And you may imagine the consternation that view causes - but I am right.
