Synopsis

The monograph Research in Psychotherapy and Integration of Psychothe­rapy Approaches brings a review of research in psychothera­py and psychotherapy integration. It is focused on research methods in psychotherapy, outcome studies, and process research. The authors focus in particular on the common factors in psychotherapy, which are the basis for psychotherapy integration. They describe an important paradigm shift in the psychotherapy research, which, instead of focusing on the effective­ness of particular psychotherapy approaches, concentrates on the princi­ples and processes of change that underly different psychotherapy schools. This paradigm shift toward the processes of change is congruent with the increasingly influential movement of psychotherapy integration, which is interested in exploring commonalities and differences between different psychotherapy schools. The book explores the field of psychotherapy integration from its historical roots to its contemporary concepts, identifying the key current integrati­ve approaches that aim to integrate insights from different psychotherapy schools in various ways.
