A significant challenge confronting all psychotherapies is the problem of relapse for therapy responders, particularly for disorders like depression. A meta-analysis (Vittengl et al., 2007) of 28 studies examining the value of booster sessions following the more intensive phase of cognitive therapy (i.e., continuation cognitive therapy) documented that:

a. rates of relapse were reduced

markedly, up to 66%. b. rates of relapse were reduced by up to 29%.
c. rates of relapse were comparable to non-continuation forms of the therapy.
d. rates of relapse were paradoxically increased due to enhanced patient dependency on the therapist.
