Influence of fee collection procedures on various therapy process variablesKruczek, Theresa A. January 1986 (has links)
A rural outpatient mental health center attempted to improve the efficacy of its fee collection procedure by requiring payment for therapy sessions prior to their onset. The main purpose of the change was to increase the total amount of fees collected and potentially increase the number of cancellations with 24-hour notice and decrease the number of failed appointments. These variables were assessed longitudinally over a two-year time span. Results indicated that the change in fee collection procedure alone did not significantly influence these variables. Demographic and therapeutic variables were assessed to determine their relationships to number of cancelled and failed appointments. Several therapeutic variables served as significant predictors of number of cancelled and failed appointments. Frequency of contact was positively correlated with number of cancellations. Total number of sessions was positively correlated with number of failed appointments. Therapist type was significantly correlated with number of failed appointments. The findings indicated that paying for therapy prior to the session was not a more efficient payment system and that there were several therapeutic variables which served as efficient predictors of number of cancelled and failed appointments.

Phenomenology and distressWelches, Philip January 1977 (has links)
This thesis has explored the area of phenomenology (and in particular, existential phenomenology) and the application of the - phenomenological method to psychotherapy. Such exploration has been undertaken largely by considering the contributions of individual philosophers and psychotherapists.The philosophers whose contributions have been considered are Descartes, Husserl, Heidegger, and Sartre. The development from Descartes' method of universal doubt to Husserl's pure phenomenology, and from Husserl's phenomenology to the application of the phenomenological method toward studying Being (Heidegger) and toward studying man's existence (Sartre) is observed.The application of the phenomenological method to psychotherapy is investigated by considering the contributions of the existential phenorenological psychotherapists Binswanger, May, and Laing.

An exploratory study to investigate aspects of the philosophy, method and practical application of pluralist evaluation of counsellingGoss, Stephen January 2000 (has links)
This thesis proposes and explores the theory and application of pluralism in the evaluation of counselling and psychotherapy. Current models of monistic and multi-method research are seen as inadequate as each tends to actively undermine the other(s). Those that attempt to offer a broad range of data types often struggle to maintain adequate 'truth value' for all their statements and findings. A pluralist process and mechanism is proposed to provide a constructive alternative to the essentially destructive models of scientific and epistemological (generally dialectical) progress described by Kuhn, Hegel and others. It also offers an advance on previous alternatives and other pluralist models. The pluralism proposed comprises cycles of structured interaction between differing methods based on a positively framed dialogue. Utility, as variously defined from different perspectives, is seen as a prime consideration. However, the approach is not merely pragmatic as it also protects the idealist epistemological aspirations and needs of the divergent research paradigms that might be applied in evaluating counselling and psychotherapy. The thesis describes a series of studies based on this pluralist model in order to explore its practical application. Three of these studies investigated the effectiveness of counselling services. Overall, their findings were supportive of the counselling interventions studied while successfully meeting a broad range of stakeholder needs. A fourth study explored pluralism in a context dominated by reductionist concerns and produced normative data on a psychometric measure of self / ideal-self discrepancies (equated with self esteem).
