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 (n = 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.

Prior literature highlights the unique mental health and academic challenges faced by Native American students in higher education; however, there is a paucity of research examining the effectiveness of counseling for Native American college students. The present study examined the effectiveness of counseling on psychological and academic distress among Native American college students, comparing their initial distress and rate of change to White students in counseling. Using naturalistic data from a large practice-research network spanning 2015-2019, we employed hierarchical linear modeling to evaluate the effect of race on psychological distress (N = 9,621) and academic distress (N = 9,643) scores during treatment. Results revealed that all clients demonstrated a significant decrease in both types of distress over the course of treatment. Native American and White clients presented to counseling with similar levels of psychological distress. However, Native American clients experienced more change and at a faster rate on psychological distress symptoms compared to White clients. On academic distress, Native American clients began and concluded counseling with higher levels of distress while experiencing a similar amount of change at a similar rate in their reduction of academic distress over the course of treatment. The study findings provide unique insight on the outcomes of treatment-seeking Native students by demonstrating a significant positive response to counseling, as well as novel comparisons between Native and White students receiving services within college counseling settings.

The therapeutic alliance is well established as an important factor of psychotherapeutic change. However, the experience of distress in social interactions, commonly referred to as interpersonal problems, might be interfering with the collaborative process during psychotherapy. 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 (r = -.12, SE = .02, 95% CI [-.16, -.08], p < .001, d = -.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.

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.

Through the lens of minority stress theory and relational-cultural theory, the present study examined whether identity concealment in the workplace by psychology trainees is indirectly associated with greater burnout and poorer therapeutic relationship quality. To test this hypothesis, a parallel mediation analysis was conducted on data from 335 clinical and counseling psychology doctoral trainees with concealable stigmatized identities using Hayes's (2018) PROCESS macro. As expected, identity concealment at a practicum or internship site was negatively associated with authenticity and belonging, both of which were negatively associated with burnout and positively associated with therapeutic relationship quality. Furthermore, identity concealment was associated with lower therapeutic relationship quality and greater burnout indirectly through lower authenticity and lower belonging. Findings suggest trainees who engage in more identity concealment at their clinical training sites may be at increased risk for burnout and poorer relationships with clients due to limited opportunities for authenticity and belonging. Future research is encouraged to longitudinally examine the impact of identity concealment on professional burnout and relationships, as well as potential protective factors. Such knowledge can support the development of interventions and policies that foster safer, more welcoming work environments for trainees with concealable stigmatized identities.

In fact, the Guidelines for Clinical Supervision in Health Service Psychology (American Psychological Association, 2015a) mentions group supervision only one time, despite the fact that supervision within a group context includes competencies and considerations that are both unique and essential to the effective and ethical practice of group supervision. Because supervision conducted with multiple supervisees is multilayered and-as a result-more complex, group supervisors need to develop special skills that go beyond the supervision dyad. This article looks to the literature on supervision-both individual and group modalities-and on group psychotherapy to highlight the practices and processes that set group supervision apart. Building upon the seven supervision competencies outlined by the American Psychological Association (Supervisor Competence; Diversity; Supervisory Relationship; Professionalism; Assessment/Evaluation/Feedback; Professional Competence Problems; and Ethical, Legal and Regulatory Considerations), which currently concentrate exclusively on individual supervision, we extend each area to include distinct features of group supervision. We include recommendations for supervisor training and for the application of effective group supervision practices, as well as ideas on how best to approach the formal adoption of group supervision guidelines for psychotherapists. Our hope is that, either in a revision of the Guidelines for Clinical Supervision in Health Service Psychology or in a freestanding supplement to the Guidelines, guidance for group supervision will be more explicitly included.

This study sought to replicate the findings of Bhatia and Gelso (2018) by examining the between-person relationships among each of the three elements averaged across all sessions. Additionally, we extended earlier work by examining the within-person relationship between the working alliance, the real relationship, and transference-countertransference with themselves as well as with each of the other elements across sessions. Using 5,931 sessions across 142 clients and 36 therapists, we examined time-ordered associations among the cocreated working alliance, cocreated real relationship, and the therapist-rated transference-countertransference configuration using latent variable dynamic structural equation modeling. Results replicated the findings of Bhatia and Gelso (2018), demonstrating that in one session, the working alliance and the real relationship were positively related, and both the working alliance and the real relationship were negatively related to the transference-countertransference configuration. Regarding the interrelations over time, the findings revealed that the working alliance in the previous session had a significant and positive relationship with real relationship in the current session, and the real relationship in the previous session was related to reduced transference-countertransference in the current session. These findings provide support for complex interrelations among the components over time.

The present study used state-of-the-art emotion recognition models to automatically label clients' emotions at the utterance level, employed these labeled data to examine the coherence between verbally expressed emotions and self-reported emotions, and examined the associations between emotional coherence and clients' improvement in functioning throughout treatment. The data comprised 872 transcribed sessions from 68 clients. Clients self-reported their functioning before each session and their emotions after each. A subsample of 196 sessions were manually coded. A transformer-based approach was used to automatically label the remaining data for a total of 139,061 utterances. Multilevel modeling was used to assess emotional coherence and determine whether it was associated with changes in clients' functioning throughout treatment. The emotion recognition model demonstrated moderate performance. The findings indicated a significant association between verbally expressed emotions and self-reported emotions. Coherence in clients' negative emotions was associated with improvement in functioning. The results suggest an association between clients' subjective experience and their verbal expression of emotions and underscore the importance of this coherence to functioning.
