The study compares types of psychotherapy and commonly used medication. Both work about equally well, but neither has a large effect. This mostly shows that the effect size of psychological interventions in general is small. But it sometimes helps, and as someone who has benefitted from psychotherapy I'm deeply grateful. The fact that psychotherapy works about as well as medication is pretty impressive, considering some of these medications have serious side effects.
