The authors describe methods used to approach the integration of competing psychotherapy paradigms within a resident psychotherapy seminar. They distributed a questionnaire developed to assess residents' subjective feelings about the usefulness of the seminar and also surveyed a second program that teaches multiple perspectives without formal attempts at integration. Results indicate that a large majority of residents in both programs felt positively about their training experience from several perspectives. However, residents from the comparison program may have had a less uniformly positive experience in learning to compare and contrast psychotherapy paradigms.
