About the Course

This article examines the “great debate” regarding ways to improve quality and outcome of psychotherapy (Wampold, 2001). The authors, present an approach that, regardless of clinical orientation or therapeutic technique, there are certain unique critical factors within the working relationship which distinguish high-performing psychotherapists from those characterized as average therapists. Methods for examining and implementing these critical factors and methods are presented in this article.

This course is based on the article, Feedback-Informed Treatment (FIT): Improving the Outcome of Psychotherapy One Person at a Time created by Scott D. Miller, Ph.D. et al. in 2016.
