I imagine most of the advancements have been in neuroscience, which have then led to the tailoring of therapeutic techniques to fit that new information as connections between conditions, mental pathways and patterns, environmental factors, and other similar areas have been studied more extensively. But the core techniques for therapy are probably still very similar, or at least I hope they are.
[They worked, at home, so they can't be too off base. Maybe just more targeted or quicker now, which would both be beneficial changes, so he can't complain too much.]
The real suffering would be if I were a psychiatrist. So much pharmacology to catch up on.
