Journal information

Journal of Psychotherapy Integration® primarily publishes original peer-reviewed papers consistent with five major pathways associated with psychotherapy integration:

• common factors (core elements to effective psychotherapy that transcend a specific orientation)
• technical eclecticism (application of the best treatment for a specific population and problem)
• theoretical integration (combining two or more theories and their associated techniques)
• assimilative integration (theoretical grounding in a single orientation with value added techniques drawn from other orientations)
• unification (meta-theoretical approaches that place theories, techniques, and principles into holistic frameworks)

Empirical studies of integrative psychotherapies targeting specific populations, clinical presentations/disorders, settings (e.g., integrated primary care), or developments in the broader fields of psychology and psychiatry (e.g., psychobiology) are also strongly encouraged.

Meta-analytic studies of any of the above are well suited to Journal of Psychotherapy Integration, as are review papers of exceptionally high quality.

The overarching goal is to significantly advance knowledge and application of psychotherapy integration.

Journal of Psychotherapy Integration is the official journal of SEPI, the Society for the Exploration of Psychotherapy Integration.
