The role of patient agency in the psychotherapeutic process: a mixed methods study.

The patient is an active agent in his therapeutic process and is considered the most important determinant of psychotherapy outcome. The concept of patient agency refers to this characteristic to actively generate change. We will investigate whether patient agency can predict therapy outcome and how it comes about in the therapist-patient interaction.
