“…However, the most commonly endorsed approach was CBT. This finding is in line with some earlier Australian and New Zealand research indicating CBT as one among a number of dominant approaches, often the main approach (e.g., Kazantzis & Deane, 1998;Pelling, 2007;Schofield, 2008;Schofield & Roedel, 2012), though psychodynamic approaches were most dominant in some studies.…”

“…One participant did not provide a response. This very strong preference for an eclectic orientation was also seen in earlier studies (Kazantzis & Deane, 1998;Pelling, 2007;Schofield, 2008) though our sample indicates a rather stronger emphasis. This is reflected also in the definition of "eclectic" given by Kazantzis and Deane (1998).…”

“…This very strong preference for an eclectic orientation was also seen in earlier studies (Kazantzis & Deane, 1998;Pelling, 2007;Schofield, 2008) though our sample indicates a rather stronger emphasis. This is reflected also in the definition of "eclectic" given by Kazantzis and Deane (1998). Psychologists were identified to be using an eclectic approach if… "they did not endorse a single approach greater than or equal to 50% of the time, or if they endorsed two approaches for 50% of the time each" (Kazantzis & Deane, 1998: p. 11).…”

“…In a study conducted by Kazantzis and Deane (1998) using a sample of 221 New Zealand psychologists CBT was the primary orientation but multiple theoretical approaches were used in practice, including behavioural, systemic, narrative and interpersonal orientations. In particular Kazantzis and Deane (1998) identified that 31% of those reviewed adopted an eclectic approach compared with figures for other countries indicating 27% of North American and 32.6% of Australian psychologists (where they endorsed two or more approaches as their dominant approach). This indicates in the late 1990s that Australian and New Zealand psychologists were adopting orientations somewhat similar to the orientations internationally beyond their borders-that is, some emphasis on eclectic approaches.…”

Counsellors and psychologists worldwide use different theoretical approaches at least sometimes in conjunction. The theoretical orientation of Australian practising psychologists and psychotherapists appears to be following an international trend that emphasises eclectic or integrative use of the orientations. The aim of the current study of 24 experienced counsellors and psychotherapists in Australia was to identify dominant theoretical orientations used in assisting clients and to compare these orientations with the trend towards integration of theories in practice. We were also interested in which of the major theories were most used in practice by these professionals and what strategies or skills they considered most important. Twenty-four counsellors and psychotherapists thus responded to a series of online survey questions about their personal approaches, resources and practices. Cognitive-Behavioural Therapy (CBT) was the most common of all therapies cited, but person-centred approaches were also popular. However, 21 of the 24 psychotherapists adopted an eclectic or integrative approach (using three or more approaches in their practice). This current finding is consistent with some earlier Australian research, though the eclectic trend may be strengthening. This study also provides insight into the key strategies that the 24 psychotherapists indicate as making a difference for clients, and outlines main reasons why they joined the profession.

Objective Cognitive behaviour therapy (CBT) has demonstrated effectiveness as a therapeutic approach for various clinical disorders, but little data exist on the extent to which it is covered in accredited postgraduate clinical psychology training programs. Data were gathered regarding aspects of CBT orientation in terms of influence, content, delivery of general programs, and administration of coursework components. Method Responses to a semi‐structured interview of 28 clinical program directors of Australian accredited courses (representing 72% of accredited courses) were analysed as part of a larger project titled “Nationwide Training in Cognitive Behaviour Therapy.” Results CBT was consistently included in training programs, but there was marked variability in the coverage of CBT competencies. Greater emphasis was placed on foundational CBT competencies (57% of programs indicating basic CBT skills were covered to a “large” or “very large extent”), in contrast to problem specific competencies (11% of programs covered to a “large” or “very large extent”). Programs with a stronger orientation towards evidence‐based practice reported greater coverage of Roth and Pilling's CBT competency framework (r = 0.62, p < 0.01). Conclusion The findings suggest that core CBT skills are covered, but there is an opportunity for these clinical training programs to enhance their coursework content to ensure that their trainees are adequately prepared to deliver CBT for different disorders.
