Psychopharmacology and biological psychiatry now dominate the mental health field. Even humanistic and existential therapists are likely to refer difficult or disturbed clients to physicians, especially psychiatrists, for possible medication. The prevailing professional tendency is to conceptualize the conflict between psychotherapy and drug treatment as a scientific one; but it is at root a conflict between two different views of human nature. We need to renew our faith in the psychiatric drug-free human being in both our personal and professional lives
