psychoanalysis is still around, and there are even interest groups and societies dedicated to it. It seems like the shrink-as-therapist thing is quietly making a bit of a comeback. Since meds work better with therapy, and therapy can work with or without meds, some insurers are wising up and seeing that it can actually cost less to pay a shrink to do 1 hours sessions w/ talking than to pay a med management person and then foist the patient onto therapists who may or may not be talking to the prescriber (and vice versa). Plus, some states allow for therapist prescribers, which I think is awesome.
