Reviews

"The present volume, comprising collaborative review articles by top US psychotherapy researchers, integrates the findings of both camps and identifies superordinate principles applicable across different psychotherapy schools. It focuses on psychotherapeutic treatments for four major groups of disorders: dysphoric disorders, anxiety disorders, personality disorders, and substance misuse. The result is a measured, balanced, open-minded, scholarly, readable
and inspiring compendium."--British Journal of Psychiatry
"In sum, Castonguay and Beutler's edited volume Principles of Therapeutic Change that Work has much to offer clinical researchers and practitioners alike. The principles the Task Force delineated are terrific contributions. Further, their effort to integrate across diverse literatures and theoretical camps is laudable and well done."--Psychological Medicine

"Both of them seasoned researchers and clinicians, Castonguay and Beutler established a task force sponsored by Division 12 and the North American Society for Psychotherapy Research that would specify variables associated with change that were based on research findings--rather than on a persons favorite theoretical variables...this volume represents an important step in the history of therapy, and has the potential to dramatically change how we think about
therapy clinically and to inform us about the kind of research that is needed. As such, it represents an exciting beginning."--The Clinical Psychologist
