Manuscript Editing for Psychotherapy Journal Articles

Order Manuscript Editing Psychotherapy is the journal of the Society for the Advancement of Psychotherapy, Division 29 of the American Psychological Association, which publishes it. It advances the scientific understanding and practice of psychotherapy with practice-oriented contributions, empirical studies of diverse methods, and examinations of controversial issues, and every submission must rest on appropriate empirical evidence.

Manuscripts follow APA 7th edition, with JARS for quantitative, qualitative, and mixed methods research. Below the abstract goes a clinical impact statement in four one-sentence parts: Question, Findings, Meaning, and Next Steps. Review is masked, and submissions go through Editorial Manager. Off the Grid Editing edits the impact statement until each sentence does its own job.
