Abstract

Gregor Žvelc and Maša Žvelc have developed the first systematic, comprehensive expansion of the theory and methodology of integrative psychotherapy (IP), a method originally developed by Richard Erskine. They have built on the model by correctly pointing out that mindful awareness has been an integral part of IP, even though it has not been explicitly written about in those terms. As true integrative psychotherapists, they have integrated their mindful and compassion-oriented approach with the models of Erskine and other colleagues (Erskine, 2015; Erskine et al., 1999).
