Methodological Limitations of the RCT in Determining the Efficacy of Psychological Therapy for Trauma

Which therapy to use with traumatized individuals is always a difficult choice, particularly as the evidence regarding the therapies available is often contradictory.
Currently, the National Institute for Health and Clinical Excellence (NICE) Guidelines in the UK recommend, on the basis of a number of trials and reviews, that practitioners in the National Health Service (NHS) only use trauma-focused cognitive behavior therapy (TFCBT) and eye movement desensitization and  reprocessing (EMDR).
