The Sociohistorical Context of Psychotherapy Integration

  • Chapter
Comprehensive Handbook of Psychotherapy Integration

Abstract

This handbook collects in one place a significant sampling of the most current and important work in psychotherapy integration. Psychotherapy integration is a subspeciality of the ongoing clinical, theoretical, and empirical scholarship in the general areas of psychotherapeutic process, technique, and outcome. It is a specialization and a field of inquiry with a relatively short but highly controversial history. Psychotherapy integration is both a set of ideas and theories and a group of technical procedures and innovations which arise from such academic and scholastic pursuits. In the last decade, the investigation of such constructs and methods of practice has moved from the fringes of respectability and clinical awareness to assume a more legitimate and prominent place in the broader fields of psychotherapeutic research and practice.
