Volume 2 ? Conceptual Frameworks in Integrative Strategic Psychotherapy
Volume 2 deepens the theoretical and empirical grounding of the ISP model by engaging with the field of psychotherapy research, particularly the literature on common factors in psychotherapy. It explores how elements such as the therapeutic alliance, empathy, expectation, meaning-making, and therapist responsiveness contribute to therapeutic change across modalities.
Rather than treating common factors as abstract or generic principles, this volume integrates them into the structure of the ISP model, demonstrating how they operate differently at the biological, psychological, and relational levels, and along the cognitive, emotional, and psychodynamic axes of the Self.
Volume 2 also examines key conceptual frameworks that inform integrative practice, including developmental trajectories, relational patterns, implicit and explicit processing, and the role of narrative and meaning in psychotherapy. It provides a bridge between foundational theory (Volume 1) and the comparative modality analysis developed in Volume 3.
