Because the AE recording approaches of the individual studies differed substantially, results could only be compared to a limited extent. Consistent with other findings, this review demonstrates that AEs can be expected to affect more than one in ten participants. Serious AEs occurred more than in one in 21 participants in psychotherapy RCTs. To allow a balanced risk/benefit evaluation of psychotherapy, systematic harm monitoring and reporting should become standard in psychotherapy RCTs.
