Influences on the career choice of psychotherapists

Article Abstract:

The causes behind the career choice of psychotherapists seem in many ways similar to the causes mentioned by social psychologists but with certain noteworthy dissimilarities. Social psychologists and therapists are similar in terms of altruism and in following personal development and satisfaction in their selected careers. Both professional groups mention strong, interpersonal alliances as significant experiences in their career directions. But therapists put more stress on achievement and success than social psychologists.

Seeking the active ingredients of psychotherapeutic change: within and outside the context of therapy

Article Abstract:

The process and results during a counseling and psychotherapy session are revealed by the separation of the active constituents that initiate a change. The study of the process and results was performed on investigating 20 different real-life experiences. The Likert scale, which indicates the various conditions of changes, was employed in this insightful study.
