The Nascent Psychotherapy

Abstract

The author treats contradictions of contemporary psychotherapy as natural for the nascent discipline. Analysing the main contradictions within the area, the author comes to a conclusion that the stage when different therapy schools coexisted with each other, is being replaced by the stage when psychotherapeutic community formulates «trans-school» universal principles that will give a basis to a new unified practice.
