Conscious versus unconscious option of psychology students concerning the psychotherapy orientation training

The paper is dedicated to some important steps in psychotherapy training: the initiation and the decision to continue in a certain psychotherapy school for specialization. Psychotherapy training involves the individual at maximum so the basis for this decision should be a strong one, especially as the details of specific interventions are discovered along the way. Efficiency studies become available later on. Details concerning techniques, therapeutic relationship, health-illness models, and psychotherapeutic mechanisms become accessible only after a decision is made. Given the high personal involvement a psychotherapist has we focused on improving the decision.
