The clp project is creating a general lexicon of psychotherapy procedures in its website: www.commonlanguagepsychotherapy.org. Therapists from round the world describe operationally what they do with clients. They show overlaps and differences across procedures used in varying approaches.

Each entry briefly describes one of a broad range of psychotherapy procedures in plain language, and includes a short Case Illustration.
