Client factors.

Abstract

Begin here if you have read the book Better Results and • are routinely measuring your performance and • have collected sufficient data to establish a reliable, evidence-based profile of your therapeutic effectiveness and • have completed the Taxonomy of Deliberate Practice Activities in Psychotherapy and • need help developing deliberate practice exercises which leverage client factors.I magine one day, a team of well-known theorists, researchers, and psychotherapists get together and, over the course of a year, develop a new treatment for depression. Excited about this new development, the team obtains grant funding and designs a rigorous randomized controlled trial to test the efficacy of the approach. They spare no expense in recruiting and screening participants, training study therapists, monitoring fidelity, and carrying out the study.
