Since its publication psychotherapy integration has grown into a mature, empirically<br>supported, and international movement, and the current edition provides a comprehensive review of what has been done.<br><br>Reflecting the considerable advances in the field since the previous edition's release in 2005, this third edition of <em>Handbook of Psychotherapy Integration</em> continues to be the state-of-the-art description of psychotherapy integration and its clinical practices by some of its most distinguished<br>proponents. Six chapters new to this edition describe growing areas of psychotherapy research and practice: common factors therapy, principle-based integration, integrative psychotherapy with children, mixing psychotherapy and self-help, integrating research and practice, and international themes.<br>The latter two of these constitute contemporary thrusts in the integration movement: blending research and practice, and recognizing its international nature. Also closely examined are the concepts, history, training, research, global themes, and future of psychotherapy integration. Each chapter<br>includes a new section on cultural considerations, and an emphasis is placed throughout the volume on outcome research. Charting the remarkable evolution of psychotherapy integration itself, the third edition of this <em>Handbook </em>will continue to prove invaluable to practitioners, researchers, and<br>students alike.<br>
