Abstract

The purpose of this review is to examine which factors therapists consider to be effective in integrative therapy. Based on a systematic search in PsycInfo
and PubMed, we found 818 studies, and after selection and sorting, we ended up having 15 case studies that could be included in the final qualitative
synthesis. We found 14 main themes that contain the factors that the therapists have identified as effective in the therapeutic course with integrative
therapy. In addition, some minor themes were identified by the therapists to be effective but were only mentioned in a few studies. Finally, strengths and weaknesses as well as indications for and clinical implications of integrative therapy are discussed.
