Studying Distinguished Practitioners: a Humanistic Approach to Discovering How to Do Psychotherapy

School of Psychology, University of Ottawa, Ottawa, Canada KIN 6N5.

One laborious, although not especially common, way to learn how to do psychotherapy is to spend nearly four decades studying taped sessions of distinguished psychotherapists. This article explains how one humanistic psychotherapist came to do this, and reports the findings of a long-term series of studies growing out of years of personal tape listening. The findings include a series of steps that occur in therapy sessions to form the cornerstone of an experiential psychotherapy.
