A PMHNP is developing her clinical approach and discusses her theoretical orientation with a supervisor. She explains that she draws techniques from multiple therapy models, including CBT thought records, psychodynamic transference interpretation, and experiential empty-chair work. However, she selects techniques based on a systematic framework that considers client characteristics, presenting problems, and empirical evidence for specific technique-problem matches rather than attempting to develop a unified theoretical understanding that integrates the different models' underlying theories of change. Her supervisor identifies this as a specific approach to combining therapies.
