The Barrington Psychiatric Center offers a time-limited psychotherapy for traumatic disorders that focuses on restoring patients to their baseline level of functioning as quickly as possible. In 1997, Barrington treated over 150 patients who had suffered from a work-related psychiatric injury. Information on the patient's past functioning is obtained in order that the treatment focuses only on issues stemming from the current psychiatric injury and not on resolving pre-existing depressive, anxiety or personality disorders. Barrington's time-limited treatment ranges from several weeks to six months, with an average duration of approximately three or four months.
Patients often come to treatment with other pre-existing diagnoses or personality features.

The number of executives, physicians, and attorneys claiming total permanent disability has increased dramatically. Their evaluation requires distinguishing true disability from an often simply felt lack of motivation.
