“…Contrary to the assertions of many EBT advocates, there exists a substantial literature that demonstrates the effectiveness of idiographic psychotherapies (Driessen et al, 2015, Leichsenring, 2005Leichsenring & Leibing, 2003;Leichsenring & Rabung, 2008;Leichsenring, Rabungm, & Leibing, 2004;Leichsenring & Scheauenburg, 2014;Leichsenring, Leweke, Klein, & Steinaart, 2015;Shedler, 2010;Wampold, 2007;Westen & Harnden-Fischer, 2001). This literature is too large to be reviewed in this article however, contrary to statements that idiographic approaches to psychotherapy are "ineffective" and "unscientific," psychotherapy effectiveness research indicates the opposite (Clarkin, Levy, Lenzenweger, & Kernberg, 2007;Leichsenring & Leibing, 2003;Leichsenring & Rabung, 2008;Leichsenring et al, 2004;Levy & Ablon, 2008;Lewis, Dennerstein, & Gibbs, 2008;Seligman, 1996;Shedler, 2010;Wampold, 2007).…”
