While most evidence was gained from randomized controlled studies or process research at university settings, there is a need for more outcome research conducted within practitioner-researcher networks assessing the effectiveness of Emotion-Focused Therapy in private practice.Methods: A total of N = 70 clients with a variety of psychiatric disorders have been included in the bi-national practitioner researcher network for Emotion-focused Therapy Switzerland-Germany. Symptom change was assessed using CORE-OM, BDI-II, IIP and WSAS. Therapist adherence was assessed by the self-reported version of the PCEPS. Pre-post-follow-up analyses were conducted using paired sample t-tests and hierarchical linear modeling.Results: Pre-post-assessment shows small to medium effect sizes for all outcome measures (except for interpersonal problems which did not change). Symptom reduction is maintained for CORE, BDI and WSAS, and increased for IIP at 3 and 6 months follow-up. Therapist adherence is good to excellent in this sample.Conclusions: Emotion-Focused Therapy is effective in the real-world practice, as suggested by the small to moderate effect sizes. The smaller effects found in the current study as compared to randomized controlled trials are consistent with the literature and suggest that EFT remains moderately effective when applied in a naturalistic context.","PeriodicalId":48159,"journal":{"name":"Psychotherapy Research","volume":" ","pages":"1-9"},"PeriodicalIF":2.6,"publicationDate":"2025-01-27","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143053828","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":1,"RegionCategory":"心理学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Across treatment modalities, the clients experienced the same types of changes. Compared to EFT clients, more CBT clients emphasized the importance of practicing new strategies when facing adversity in their change process. Reversely, more EFT clients emphasized getting in touch with, tolerating, and listening to their inner experiences.Conclusion: Our findings suggest that clients undergoing CBT and EFT describe changes in the same domains but show differences in how they emphasize various pathways leading to their change.","PeriodicalId":48159,"journal":{"name":"Psychotherapy Research","volume":" ","pages":"1-15"},"PeriodicalIF":2.6,"publicationDate":"2025-01-23","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143030093","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":1,"RegionCategory":"心理学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

We aimed to develop and validate the first performance-based observer-rated measure of teletherapy skills: The Teletherapy Facilitative Interpersonal Skills Performance Task (Tele-FIS). Methods: We developed a set of 12 Tele-FIS video stimulus clips as simulations of four research-informed common therapeutic challenges in teletherapy: technology, distraction, boundaries and privacy, and emotional disconnection. A total of 153 therapists recorded interventions to the clips which were later rated on interpersonal skills. Results: The Tele-FIS performance task demonstrated good interrater reliability, internal consistency, test-retest reliability, and convergent validity. The Tele-FIS was positively associated with self-reported facilitative interpersonal skills, self-efficacy, attitudes towards technology, and observer-rated skills on a version of the FIS task that simulates in-person therapy. Therapists performed similarly on teletherapy clips of emotional disconnection and privacy issues compared to clips of in-person therapy. Therapists performed worse on Tele-FIS clips of technology and distraction challenges than in-person therapy clips. Conclusions: The Tele-FIS has potential as an assessment tool in skills training for trainees and licensed clinicians as well as future research about therapeutic work via teletherapy.

This study aims to explore the evolution of flexibility between immersion and distancing throughout the entire therapeutic process and its relationship with therapeutic alliance and depressive symptoms in a clinical case.Method: We analyzed five sessions of a good outcome case of depression undergoing cognitive-behavioral therapy. We assessed the distancing/immersion of these sessions using the Measure of Immersed and Distanced Speech, and therapeutic alliance with the Working Alliance Inventory-Short Form. The depressive symptoms were assessed from the Beck Depression Inventory-II.Results: Flexibility and therapeutic alliance from both client's and therapist's perspectives increased throughout the therapeutic process. A strong negative correlation was found between flexibility and depressive symptoms.Conclusions: The increase in flexibility can be an adaptive pattern associated with the decrease in depressive symptoms, the increase in therapeutic alliance (from both the client's and the therapist's perspective), and therapeutic success.","PeriodicalId":48159,"journal":{"name":"Psychotherapy Research","volume":" ","pages":"1-13"},"PeriodicalIF":2.6,"publicationDate":"2025-01-23","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143025186","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":1,"RegionCategory":"心理学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The current proof-of-concept study examines, for the first time, therapist-patient inter-brain synchrony measurement during multiple sessions. To guide the design of future studies, we performed a precursory test in a small sample of the association between inter-brain synchrony and therapeutic change, hypothesizing that it would gradually increase over therapy, reflecting inter-brain plasticity.Method.: We scanned 18 therapy sessions of participants (N = 8) who underwent a 6-session test anxiety treatment. We measured therapist and patient brain activity using functional near-infrared spectroscopy (fNIRS) and assessed perceived session quality, wellbeing, symptoms, and therapeutic alliance every session.Results.: In this proof-of-concept sample inter-brain synchrony gradually increased over treatment, and was associated with reduced symptoms, improved wellbeing and perceived session quality, but not with a stronger therapeutic alliance. fNIRS imaging had no discernable adverse effects.Conclusion.: Our findings demonstrate that fNIRS imaging during psychotherapy is a feasible and viable research method and that inter-brain plasticity should be a candidate for future research on biological mechanisms underlying therapeutic change.","PeriodicalId":48159,"journal":{"name":"Psychotherapy Research","volume":" ","pages":"1-15"},"PeriodicalIF":2.6,"publicationDate":"2025-01-20","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143014033","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":1,"RegionCategory":"心理学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Method: In the quantitative phase, we randomly assigned 210 mental health professionals to the experienced or novice ratee condition to rate the same structured case report on assessment and formulation, intervention strategy, relationship, and self-reflection. The qualitative phase was subsequently conducted to help make sense of the results. We interviewed twelve supervisors about how they would rate a case report and factors they thought would influence their evaluation. Results: Linear model with non-constant variances revealed that the manipulation of ratee experience did not significantly bias ratings. Raters whose self-identified theoretical orientation aligned with that of the report provided higher and less dispersed ratings for intervention strategy and therapeutic relationship competencies. As their years of experience increased, theoretically congruent raters tended to give lower and more dispersed ratings. Thematic analysis revealed highly variable cognitive processes, and identified rater theoretical expertise, evaluation context, rater subjectivity and dual relationships as important factors to consider. Conclusion: This study indicate that theoretically congruent raters would be desirable, but raters with more years of experience should be cautioned against giving stringent ratings for theoretically familiar cases.","PeriodicalId":48159,"journal":{"name":"Psychotherapy Research","volume":" ","pages":"1-12"},"PeriodicalIF":2.6,"publicationDate":"2025-01-07","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142956727","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":1,"RegionCategory":"心理学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
