Previous studies suggest that therapist dissatisfaction may play a pivotal role in premature treatment termination. This study, therefore, aimed to investigate therapist factors that may contribute to less-than-optimal results and dropout. Data were collected through a survey of patients (<i>n</i> = 736) with the experience of previous unsuccessful psychotherapy treatments. Based on prior research, the survey covered 13 therapist behaviors and traits, such as being unstructured or unengaged. The most common therapist factor that patients associated with treatment failure was poor assessment/understanding (86.7%), followed by inflexibility (71.7%) and poor knowledge (70.1%). Furthermore, this study identified four novel therapist-related factors: breaking the treatment contract, inappropriate sexual behaviors or comments, using non-conventional methods, and dominating behaviors. Overall, this study highlights the significance of therapist-related factors in premature treatment termination and treatment failure, shedding light on the crucial role therapists play in the therapeutic process. Understanding these factors is essential for improving psychotherapy outcomes and reducing dropout rates. Further investigations are needed to explore the impact of these therapist behaviors on treatment outcomes and to develop strategies for enhancing therapist competencies and skills to foster a more effective therapeutic alliance.

This study systematically reviews the literature and obtains an estimate of the relationship between pretreatment interpersonal problems and the quality of the therapeutic alliance. Overall, 27 studies with 48 correlation coefficients were included in the final analysis. Due to the nested structure of the data, a three-level meta-analytic approach with a restricted maximum likelihood estimator was applied. Alliance assessment phase, alliance rater, alliance measure instrument, and treatment type were tested as potential moderators. Heterogeneity and publication bias test were performed. The meta-analysis showed a small, but significant negative relationship between interpersonal problems at the beginning of psychotherapy and subsequent therapeutic alliance (<i>r</i> = -.12, SE = .02, 95% CI [-.16, -.08], <i>p</i> < .001, <i>d</i> = -.27). Only alliance assessment phase accounted for significant variability. There were no indications for a substantial publication bias. Interpersonal problems of patients before psychotherapy are a robust predictor for lower therapeutic alliance quality, albeit a small effect size. Consequently, patients who experience interpersonal problems may face greater challenges in developing a strong alliance with their therapists, especially in early stages of the treatment.

To support the use of DBT with individuals experiencing emotion/behavior dysregulation and oppression, we review how each of the primary strategies of DBT can be used within the context of oppression. Specifically, we discuss how dialectical philosophy, the acceptance/change dialectic, communication strategies, and case management strategies can be viewed through an oppression lens. A brief review of DBT research with historically oppressed populations and common pitfalls in treating oppressed individuals is presented. As research in examining and adapting DBT for minoritized groups continues to catch up to clinical need, guidance is presented here for researchers and clinicians interested in using this empirically supported treatment in communities that experience oppression.

Group supervision can provide a space to address such concerns, including managing culturally related countertransference and understanding sociocultural factors in issues faced by clients. This process requires critical consciousness and discussion of trainees' and clients' cultural identities. This study built on research highlighting the positive role of cultural humility in individual supervision and group therapy to examine cultural humility in group supervision and its contribution to trainees' self-efficacy in adapting therapy and managing relationship conflicts with a range of clients (i.e., cultural responsiveness self-efficacy), via sociocultural awareness and minimal cultural concealment about themselves and their clients. Ninety-one master's level counseling trainees in Hong Kong from 18 supervision groups in two training programs completed measures of cultural humility, cultural concealment, sociocultural awareness, and cultural responsiveness self-efficacy. Multilevel modeling indicated that, at the within-trainee level, higher group cultural humility was associated with higher sociocultural awareness and lower cultural concealment about themselves and their clients. Greater sociocultural awareness, but not cultural concealment, was, in turn, linked to higher cultural responsiveness self-efficacy. At the between-trainee level, higher group cultural humility correlated with lower trainee cultural concealment, but not sociocultural awareness, which was associated with cultural responsiveness self-efficacy, although no mediation was observed. This study underscores the value of cultural humility in the context of group supervision. Implications for multicultural group supervision are discussed.

Many definitions of cultural humility emphasize a high level of self-awareness, openness to feedback, empathy, and curiosity toward others' cultural experiences (Davis et al., 2018; Foronda et al., 2016; Hook et al., 2013; Zhang et al., 2022).

Drawing from the literature, we delineate what we see as effective pedagogy and assessment of the key ingredients of cultural humility and provide recommendations for how supervisors can use the supervisory relationship to cultivate in their supervisees each of the necessary ingredients.

These calls indicate the need for psychological case conceptualization to move beyond preconceived assessments of which aspects of clients' identities are salient to them, to engage with clients' sociocultural identities as situated within systems of power and oppression, and to engage in advocacy to improve clients' socioenvironmental contexts and to challenge structural oppression. In this article, we attend to the foundational contributions of Black psychology, intersectionality, liberation psychology, Indigenous healing, and radical healing for using case conceptualization to guide structurally responsive and impactful treatment and advocacy. We then present a case example drawn from a composite of clinical encounters that captures client distress interwoven with structural forces such as addiction stigma, intersecting classism and sexism, White privilege, and caregiver leave policies. To demonstrate how to integrate structural forces with theory, we present how this case would be conceptualized utilizing psychodynamic frameworks infused with attention to the ways in which structural forces shape and perpetuate the client's distress. To move from naming to integrating structural competency in case conceptualization, psychotherapy training must address how structural forces shape how client distress develops and is maintained and necessitates advocacy outside of the session.

Despite this, there is a dearth of age-specific guidelines for effectively fostering a positive alliance and repairing these ruptures. This review examines existing literature to (a) summarize the current understanding of alliance formation in youth psychotherapy, particularly considering the distinct characteristics of working with adolescents, and (b) provide evidence-based recommendations to assist youth therapists in building strong alliances and effectively addressing alliance ruptures with this age group. Existing evidence indicates that while guidance designed for adult therapy can be beneficial, working with adolescents poses unique challenges. These include resistance to treatment, engagement in risky behaviors, confidentiality issues, and parental involvement, which can strain the therapeutic relationship. This emphasizes the importance for youth therapists to understand the unique challenges and developmental stages adolescents face and to adapt their approach accordingly. By doing so, therapists can effectively address the needs of adolescents, fostering a strong alliance and handling any ruptures that may arise.

Rupture-repair processes may be particularly important in psychotherapy for pregnancy loss wherein ruptures related to client feelings of shame and inadequacy, the societal invalidation of perinatal grief, and reenactments in the therapy relationship of early attachment experiences have been theorized to be common and important events (Markin, 2024). Thus, it is important to understand what occurs on a microlevel during the process of therapy to ultimately explain the rupture resolution (RR) and treatment outcome association. In particular, while both the therapist and client are believed to contribute to ruptures and to their repair (Safran & Muran, 2000), little is known about how therapist contributions impact rupture events, rupture resolution, and treatment progress. Further, client reflective functioning (RF) may represent a set of capacities that contribute to and are increased by rupture resolution yet vary depending on the role of the therapist in the rupture. The current investigation examined how observer-rated therapist contribution to ruptures and client RF were related to rupture events, rupture resolution, and client-reported symptom change and session quality over 22 sessions of psychodynamic therapy for pregnancy after loss. Therapist contribution to ruptures predicted rupture significance, high and steady within-session client RF scores, and symptom change. Client RF and rupture resolution predicted symptom change differently, often depending on type of symptom. Importantly, client RF and rupture resolution may predict successful outcomes through ameliorating commonly reported symptoms during pregnancies after loss.
