Page Range: 98 – 100
Neal Miller's pioneering insights into the possibilities of synthesis between psychoanalytic and learning theory formulations of phenomena of anxiety, defense, psychopathology, and personality dynamics provided a key foundation for later efforts to integrate psychodynamic and cognitive-behavioral approaches to therapy. This paper highlights Miller's influence and the continuing legacy of his integrative mindset in the contemporary psychotherapy integration movement.Abstract
