Indeed, the process of psychotherapy is influenced in the real world by therapists, with their own personas, clinical judgments and 'wisdoms'. This paper explores the evidence to identify the most salient interpersonal processes that predict good client outcomes, or at least avoid poor client outcomes. The difficulties in this endeavour include the fact that judgments about the effectiveness of psychotherapists by their peers and supervisors are not reliable. A selected review of the evidence supports therapists' beliefs that effectiveness is related to personal and interpersonal qualities of the therapist. However, these beliefs about effective therapists are generally idealised by therapists and get equivocal support from the evidence. On the other hand, evidence indicates that low levels of effectiveness are associated with 'poor' personal qualities, especially hostile introjects that get acted out in psychotherapy as active hostility and giving mixed messages to clients. There is a critical need to identify interpersonal qualities that ensure effectiveness as these do not appear to be modified by current training methods and are not well recognised by practitioners and researchers alike. 2005-05 published Psychoz Publications 51173 2 2377086 dark_document 51173 Psychoz Charm26-7-06.pdf application/pdf 01af38b715ace55c57589f49e5beb742 MD5 28509 2020-06-15 02:31:00 1394 1 1 application/pdf text Unsigned Publisher Permission Form en staffonly
