The methods and specific techniques of psychotherapy are essential technological action sequences which operate within a specific domain of the total relational-biopsychosocial system of the individual or larger groups. For example there are many types of schema identification and recognition which are primarily directed toward restructuring the intrapsychic subsystem or what occurs within the individual. These techniques are specific action sequences utilized and initiated by psychotherapists with the goal of enhancing functioning, re-patterning processes, and leading to new learning and consolidation. The field of psychotherapy lacks a well articulated map of the methods and techniques of psychotherapy. This is a critical challenge for the contemporary psychotherapeutics and the completion of this evolving resource represents a major advance for the field. Within the clinical sciences an important advance was in the articulation of the criteria and elaboration of the spectrum of mental disorders. | The methods and specific techniques of psychotherapy are essential technological action sequences which operate within a specific domain of the total relational-biopsychosocial system of the individual or larger groups.
