title: [Evolving trends in verbal psychotherapy].
abstract: The present, still unsatisfactory level of theoretical reflexion in the field of verbal psychotherapy as well as the efforts made for an optimisation of the disturbance- and patient-specific method has led to three positions, which can be considered as developmental trends in verbal psychotherapy: traditional conceptions, endeavours for the extension of the basic behaviour, and integrative concepts. These different viewpoints have been problemised. It is to be hoped that the further development of verbal psychotherapy, owing to a deepened understanding of its modes of action and a further clearing up of the question of indications, will proceed more theoretically founded than it has until now.
