Teaching the Integration of Psychotherapy Paradigms in a Psychiatric Residency Seminar

David Mark Allen, M.D., Charlotte L. Kennedy, Ph.D., William R. Veeser, Ph.D. and Trusa Grosso, M.S.W.

Received July 8, 1997; revised September 26, 1999; accepted October 28, 1999. From the Department of Psychiatry, University of Tennessee, Memphis, 6th floor, 135 N. Pauline, Memphis, TN. Address correspondence to Dr. Allen. e-mail: DMAllen{at}utmem1.utmem.edu

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.

Key Words: Psychotherapy • Integration of Paradigms
