Note
A regular plural, made with a plain -s and taking a plural verb: therapists agree, therapists report. It carries both meanings of the singular. The broad one covers anyone who provides therapy, usually as a profession. The narrow one means psychotherapists in particular. Context decides which is meant, and a modifier such as physical or speech points clearly to the broad sense.
