Common Factors of Effective Psychotherapy. A Comprehensive Approach to Treatment

This book addresses a well-known and important topic in psychology — common factors — which is usually not accompanied by recommendations for practical application. This work describes the transtheoretical principles underlying all schools of therapy. The results of their application in research, practice, and training are indeed impressive, and this book should be read by both experienced and novice professionals.

As interns and experienced clinicians feel the growing pressure to integrate a wide range of scientifically validated practices, this much-needed book offers a model based on principles of change that permeate various theoretical directions, providing detailed recommendations, methods, and examples for their flexible and effective implementation. This is a new and limitless resource for studying and improving psychotherapy methods.
