Abstract

[We are now in a position to address one of the key issues in this book and offer up a solution to the problem of psychology. Recall that my intellectual journey began with a realization that the fragmentation in psychotherapy represented a huge problem that was preventing the advancement of the profession. Yet as I probed deeply into questions of psychotherapy integration, my attention shifted as I realized a unified approach to psychotherapy depended on a coherent conception of psychology. It was out of pursuing the question of “What is psychology?” that the unified theory ultimately emerged. This chapter and the next apply the unified theory to solving the problem of psychology and fostering the move toward developing a unified approach to psychotherapy.]
