Object Relational Gestalt Therapy (ORGT) and evidence-based practice

Abstract

"Abstract: Psychotherapy outcome has been of great interest for the last fifty years. Empirically supported psychotherapy and evidence-based treatment are influencing current thinking about variables that can and should be validated in psychotherapy. After first presenting a critical review of evidence-based treatment, I will try to evaluate where ORGT stands in the light of recent results obtained in research on psychotherapy. Key words: Object Relational Gestalt Therapy, psychotherapy, evidence-based practices, therapeutic principles, personality disorders, effectiveness."
