Abstract
The psychotherapy game can be thought of as a team sport involving two players, one a professional, the other an amateur. The aim of the game is to resolve the problems of the amateur according to the rules of the professional, rules which the amateur must learn as the game progresses. Research in this field has concentrated largely on attempts to discover the influence of each of these elements, both singly and in their interactions, on the success of the game, or the resolution of the problems.
