Abstract

<p>Authoritative reviews and meta-analyses demonstrate that no psychotherapy is superior to any other, although all are superior to no treatment. These bodies of research also suggest that a core set of features shared by all therapies account for a significant portion of client symptomatic improvement. Process researchers are demonstrating that the most effective therapies are customized to individual patients.</p> <h4>ABOUT THE AUTHORS</h4> <p>Dr. Viamontes is regional medical director, United Behavioral Health Inc., St. Louis, MO, and assistant clinical professor, Department of Psychiatry, University of Missouri – Columbia, Columbia, MO.
