Therapists often fail to see when therapy is making things worse:
Psychotherapy Works, But Not For Everyone | The Huffington Post
"Therapists typically fail to see deterioration before it happens. In one study, therapists were asked to spot patients who got worse. Out of 550, only one patient was correctly identified - 39 negative outcomes were missed. When using a statistical alarm system, however, 77 % of the deteriorating clients were identified beforehand."

From the first article:
"Most people are helped by therapy"

A bit later:
"Very little research has been done on the negative impact of psychological therapies"

Uh, what's wrong with this picture?
