Greetings of Peace,

I am writing to request assistance in my present line of research. Basically, I am trying to ascertain which are the primary schools of psychotherapeutic practice, identify the founders of these schools and their principle expositions describing the method of therapy. So far I have obtained the following list:

Psychoanalysis

Sigmund Freud - An Outline of Psychoanalysis

Individual Psychology

Alfred Adler - Practice and Theory of Individual Psychology
Analytical Psychology

C.G. Jung - The Practice of Psychotherapy

Gestalt Therapy

Frederick Perls - Gestalt Therapy

Logotherapy

Victor Frankl - The Will to Meaning

Existential Psychotherapy

Irvin d. Yalom - Existential Psychotherapy

Client-Centered Therapy

Carl Rogers - Client-Centered Therapy

Rational Emotive Therapy

Albert Ellis - The Practice of Rational Emotive Behavior Therapy

Cognitive Therapy

Aaron T. Beck - Cognitive Therapy and the Emotional Disorders

What else should be added to this list of primary sources? Also, are there any other good books on the general and universal principles of psychotherapy aside from Principles of Psychotherapy by Irving B. Weiner?

Thank you for your assistance.

In Peace,
Desmond
