Abstract

Despite the many years of research dedicated to psychotherapy, therapy outcomes do not seem to be improving over the years. One of the approaches that are trying to address this issue is the personalization of therapy according to client characteristics. Most of the approaches to personalization in psychotherapy are atheoretical, i.e., attempting to be applicable across theoretical approaches. There are limited attempts to develop theoretically coherent personalization within existing therapeutic approaches. This paper attempts to outline a framework for a theoretically coherent approach to personalization in emotion-focused therapy (EFT) that would also account for the client’s everyday-life interactions. EFT is an experiential-humanistic approach and thus a framework for personalization in EFT is also relevant for personalization approaches in other exploratory therapies. This paper introduces a framework for personalized, context-sensitive, emotion-focused therapy EFT (P-EFT). The framework covers three domains: (1) appropriate indication and adjustment of EFT to client goals, preferences, characteristics; (2) optimizing the therapist’s therapeutic work and being with the client; and (3) supporting in-session processes by facilitating outside-session client engagement/practices in the client’s everyday life. An outline of how research findings as well as a data informed approach could inform all of these three domains is also provided.

个性化情境敏感情绪集中疗法
尽管多年来一直致力于心理治疗的研究,但多年来治疗效果似乎并没有改善。试图解决这一问题的方法之一就是根据客户的特点进行个性化治疗。大多数心理治疗个性化方法都是非理论性的,即试图适用于各种理论方法。在现有治疗方法中发展理论上一致的个性化治疗的尝试很有限。本文试图为情感焦点疗法(EFT)中的个性化治疗勾勒出一个理论上连贯的框架,该框架还将考虑到客户日常生活中的互动。情绪集中疗法是一种体验式人本主义疗法,因此情绪集中疗法的个性化框架也适用于其他探索性疗法的个性化方法。本文介绍了一个个性化、情境敏感、以情绪为中心的 EFT 疗法(P-EFT)框架。该框架涵盖三个领域:(1)根据客户的目标、偏好和特点对EFT进行适当的指示和调整;(2)优化治疗师的治疗工作和与客户的相处;以及(3)通过促进客户在日常生活中的会外参与/实践来支持会话过程。此外,还概述了研究成果以及数据知情方法如何为所有这三个领域提供信息。
