SEPI 2019 Conference – Building Alliances

• Conference

The therapeutic alliance is a robust predictor of outcome across theoretical orientations, and has been referred to as the “quintessential integrative variable” (Wolfe & Goldfried, 1988). The theme for the SEPI 2019 conference, Building Alliances, recognizes the centrality of the alliance in psychotherapy practice and research. Consistent with this theme, the conference will include a plenary session celebrating the legacy of Jeremy Safran, whose integrative work on alliance ruptures has made an indelible impact on the field.
