  • Title: Emotion in psychotherapy: a practice-friendly research review.
    Author: Greenberg LS, Pascual-Leone A.
    Journal: J Clin Psychol; 2006 May; 62(5):611-30. PubMed ID: 16523500.
    Abstract:
    This article reviews the process and outcome research on emotion in psychotherapy. Four distinct types of emotion processes are identified in the literature as useful in therapy, depending on a client's presenting concerns: emotional awareness and arousal; emotional regulation, active reflection on emotion (meaning making), and emotional transformation. Research findings are summarized to highlight the practical implications of these different emotion processes to psychotherapy. A range of selected treatments from different therapeutic orientations are addressed collectively as different types of emotion-focused, experiential therapies and are compared on the basis of how they work with emotion in session.
