Description

Marianne Helleseth, Andrew McAleavey, and Christian Moltu present a dual case study of clinical feedback in psychotherapy. In routine outcome monitoring, patients regularly report how they are doing. Therapists then use those reports to steer care. Trials of the method have given mixed results, and how feedback actually helps inside sessions is little explored.

The cases follow two patients. One is a young woman with a trauma history and deep distrust, treated for eight months. The other is a middle-aged man whose past trauma led him to hide his own needs, treated for nineteen months. Feedback records, health notes, and therapist notes form the material. The authors find feedback worked as a shared tool. It helped the pairs talk about their alliance, name progress or stuck points, and voice the unspoken.
