it's hard to find because the emphasis has been changing in psychiatry for a few decades. Around the early 80's the APA started emphasizing diagnosis and medicine as treatments while physiotherapist became more popular. Why have psychiatrists if there are therapists already? Basically a career saving decision. Insurance companies also help by not paying so much so dr's think they need to see two patients an hour. Or more. Essentially they don't get paid for talk therapy unless they work out of network in which case they design their own model. This is more and more popular.
