Mifrasim Institute
For Psychotherapy Research and Training
Operating since 2016, Mifrasim Institute for Psychotherapy Research and Training is an applied institute that promotes research, teaching and training designed to disseminate an integrative approach to the study and practice of psychotherapy.
Leading members of the Faculty of Behavioral Science are involved in the Mifrasim Institute, complemented by active collaborations with key psychotherapy researchers from Israel and other countries.
Our three-pronged vision is to:
Develop psychotherapy research and training from integrative and evidences-based perspectives;
Promote training and knowledge in well-established psychotherapeutic methods that emphasize integration between theory, research and practice;
Advance integrative knowledge concerning the treatment of core psychological problems.
The Mifrasim Institute operates a wide range of research projects on various psychotherapeutic techniques. Our data is generated through the joint effort of faculty members and M.A. and B.A. students to classify the therapeutic techniques of 86 treatments, each consisting of 12 sessions of brief integrative psychotherapy. Thanks to this work, 10 research projects are already in advances stages.
These projects focus on the integrative nature of therapeutic techniques; the implications of the richness of the therapeutic technique for different patients and different therapeutic stages; the impact of therapist self-disclosure for different patients and in different therapeutic stages; the influence of the dialectics between supportive and challenging interventions; and more.
