In this article we review the main findings in psychotherapy research that can contribute to the two goals of the treatment-selection process: (1) facilitating the first phase of therapy and (2) enhancement of Final outcome of therapy. Psychotherapy research that contributes directly to treatment selection is scarce since treatment selection as such is seldom the topic of study. Further, guidelines For the practitioner concerning treatment selection have rarely been Formulated. In this review we make the explicit attempt to reformulate research Findings into suggestions for the clinician for treatment selection.
