TY - JOUR PY - 2006// TI - The centrality of emotion in unifying and accelerating psychotherapy JO - Journal of clinical psychology (Hoboken) A1 - Magnavita, Jeffrey J. SP - 585 EP - 596 VL - 62 IS - 5 N2 - An array of treatment modalities, formats, and methods show promise in increasing the affective experience of the patient and thus potentially accelerating the course of psychotherapy through a coherent framework. A unified framework allows clinicians to select from various formats and methods and to use relational factors to maximize treatment potency. The treatment of a patient who had personality disturbance, chronic depression, obsessive-compulsive disorder, and road rage illustrates several unifying principles and demonstrates that emotional experiences and their processing often lead to beneficial outcomes.
