Description
This article presents a study that aimed to identify the positive processes thought to regularly occur in mainstream therapy by interviewing therapists with a range of experience, and to identify and understand the current methods employed in practice. Interviews produced statements leading to five themes identified in the article which were recommended as a taxonomy of positive processes for future research.
