Many psychologists focus largely on the mental processes of their patients. Biological psychologists work on the basis that there is an organic basis to mental processes, and that this requires them to understand the way that mental processes are instansiated in the brain. They recognize that treating the organic problem may be accomplished by talking as well as drugs. Eric Kandell is a great proponent of this theory.
