Details:
From 26-28 February 2026 The International Conference of Conversation Analysis and Psychotherapy will be held in in Cracow, Poland.
Conference theme: How Psychotherapy Works: Longitudinal Perspectives
The conference will be exploring the mechanisms and processes that underpin effective psychotherapy over time. This theme will delve into how therapeutic interventions evolve, sustain, and influence client outcomes across various timeframes and contexts. By examining longitudinal studies, clinical experiences, and emerging research, the conference aims to provide deeper insights into the enduring impacts of psychotherapy, counseling, coaching and other professions of “talking cure”, fostering a comprehensive understanding of their effectiveness and the factors that contribute to long-term success.
Plenarists include Steven Clayman, Arnulf Deppermann, Joanna Pawelczyk, John Rae and Sanna Vehviläinen.
Bernadetta Janusz is the chair of the Organizing Committee and Anssi Peräkylä is the chair of the Scientific Committee.
Submission guidelines
We invite researchers and practitioners of psychotherapy and related practices to participate in the conference. Submissions welcome in all conversation analytical topics relevant to the theme “How Psychotherapy Works: Longitudinal Perspectives”. We also welcome conversation analytical studies that explore ways in which psychotherapy works, without explicit focus on longitudinal processes.

- Longitudinal or follow-up studies in psychotherapy and related practices
- Case studies highlighting therapeutic processes and change over time
- Studies focusing on process of change in sessions and in sequences
- Methodological innovations in conversation analytical psychotherapy research
- Studies combining conversation analysis with other qualitative or quantitative approaches
- Theoretical perspectives on the mechanisms of change in psychotherapy
