I'm not sure exactly what claim you are referring to. Maybe if you articulate it I can comment properly.
My general impression is that the only way to communicate how psychiatry is would be to write a very thick novel with characters who occupy many different positions in relation to the profession. Even then it would be hard to give an all-encompassing impression.

It's a contested field. Try this article for example:
