According to the [[Oxford English Dictionary]], psychotherapy first meant "hypnotherapy" instead of "psychotherapy". The [[original]] meaning, "the treatment of disease by ‘psychic’ [i.e., [[hypnotic]]] [[methods]]", was first recorded in 1853 as "Psychotherapeia, or the remedial [[influence]] of [[mind]]". The [[modern]] meaning, "the treatment of disorders of the mind or [[personality]] by psychological or psychophysiological methods", was first used in 1892 by [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Frederik_van_Eeden Frederik van Eeden] translating "Suggestive Psycho-therapy" for his French "Psychothérapie Suggestive". Van Eeden credited borrowing this term from [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Daniel_Hack_Tuke Daniel Hack Tuke] and noted, "Psycho-therapy ... had the misfortune to be taken in tow by [[hypnotism]]."
