Summary/Abstract: An interesting thing to focus on in psychotherapy is integration, because it seems to be the main door that allows us to look at the gap between theory and practice. Here we do not mean the unity of training and the use of all available and existing tools to treat symptoms, although training under different therapies often adds new tools that the psychotherapist uses. The integrative eclectic current invites us to rethink the basic assumptions of psychotherapeutic work. We see it as linked to how therapists confront their integrative models and the way in which they are activated in clinical situations to treat patients. One of the implicit goals that we believe is to encourage practitioners to have an open therapeutic attitude that prioritizes the patient’s satisfaction at the end of each session, and aims for an effective treatment that leads to optimal adaptive cognition – whether it is a specific treatment method that the therapist pre-determines and then delivers without any compromises or is overly designed at the expense of patients’ requirements.
