“…Probably the first recognised attempt to integrate behaviourism and psychoanalysis was presented to the American Psychiatric Association by Thomas French (1933) and was later elaborated by Kubie (1934), although their ideas were not appreciated at the time. Arkowitz (1992) describes how others developed these links further and suggests that one of the most influential books in this vein is Wachtel's (1977) Psychoanalysis and Behaviour Therapy: Towards an Integration, which examines how the psychoanalytic theories of Sullivan and Erikson allow for understanding problematic behaviour as a conditioned response to interpersonal relations.…”

The origins of clinical psychotherapy date from the beginning of last century and the development of broadly four foundational schools -psychoanalytic, cognitivebehavioural, humanistic and transpersonal psychologies. The imperative to integrate these schools, however, is relatively recent and in the last 25 years a professional integration movement has developed, exemplified by the formation of SEPI and the UKAPI, and 'integrative psychotherapist' is now the most popular nomenclature used in the profession. This article gives a brief history of the integration movement, reviews some issues raised by developments so far, and discusses the personal dilemma that integration evokes in the would-be integrative practitioner. Using my own journey I espouse an integrative attitude that is based on the nature of integration as an evolving personal process rather than an ideal, fixed, profession-wide position. I describe three interweaving modalities of integration I call constructive, complicit and contiguous integration, which form a developmental framework that aims to encourage the individual activity of questioning, inventing, researching and interrogating the discipline within its philosophical, professional and social context. In concluding, this article exhorts the profession to see integration as a personal journey, as a way of being that is constantly becoming and unfolding in relation with the therapist's training, experience and interaction with peers and clients. The result is indefinable and unnameable, and perhaps represents the soul of integrative psychotherapy.

“…A brief historical overview 1 of this movement might begin with an attempt to convert Freudian psychoanalytic concepts into the terms of learning theories. As noted by Arkowitz (1984), whose fine history of psychotherapy integration has influenced extensively this more concise attempt, perhaps the first article of this type was written by Ischlondy (cited in Arkowitz, 1984), and his work was expanded upon by French (1933) and by Kubie (1934). French was concerned with the correspondences between the Pavlovian constructs of inhibition, differentiation, and conditioning and the analytic concepts of repression, object choice, and insight.…”

Psychotherapy integration is an approach to treatment that goes beyond any single theory or set of techniques. The history of the psychotherapy integration movement is described, along with several approaches to integration that have been developed. We #en desclibe our assimilative approach, based on a psychodynamic model but incorporating technlques from various active approaches to treatment. A case history is provided illustrating the model that we describe.

“…It seems that approximately in the middle of every decade workers on both sides of the fence develop an urge to look over it and try to join hands. Thus French (1933) and Kubie (1934) attempted to show that the concepts of psychoanalysis and the concepts of Pavlov could, to a significant degree, be regarded as equivalent interpretations of the same phenomena. Some 10 years later Shoben (1948Shoben ( , 1949 interpreted psychotherapy within a learning theory framework, as did Dollard & Miller (1950) in an even broader sense since they tried to relate specific psychoanalytic postulates to specific phenomena of learning (e.g.…”

Behaviour therapy and psychodynamic psychotherapy: Basic conflict or reconciliation and integration?*

As recently as 1970 the approaches of behaviour therapy and psychodynamic psychotherapy (especially in the form of psychoanalysis) to the explanation and treatment of disorders of behaviour were acknowledged by most psychologists to be fundamentally different and irreconcilable. Sporadic earlier suggestions that reconciliation between and even integration of the two approaches might be possible have received strong support in the last decade from a number of sources. The literature relating to these developments is reviewed and it is concluded that a strong case appears to have been made out for reconciliation and integration. These 'paths of convergence' have been produced by both general and specific forces. However, critical voices (mainly from sympathetic but unconvinced psychoanalytically oriented therapists) have not been wanting. Their criticisms are reviewed as well as the fundamental issue of the relationship between theory and therapy in the two approaches. It is concluded that the case for the reconciliation and integration of behaviour therapy and psychodynamic psychotherapy has not been satisfactorily established on empirical grounds and is very difficult, if not impossible, to establish on theoretical grounds.
