The Buddhist roots of his "Attachment/Aversion Model of Client Suffering" are explored, and their origins in the Buddhist psychology known as <em>Abhidharma</em> are noted.  The <em>Abhidharma</em> is placed within the context of modern theories of conditioning.  I then outline how ideas and practices from the Buddhist tradition fit very well into the major contemporary psychotherapies, as Samlin shows using the TLDP model.   Some reasons are presented for the advantages of integrating Buddhist thought and practices into psychotherapy.  Finally, some practical suggestions are proposed for how to use this approach in psychotherapy with clients.</p>}, number={4}, journal={Pragmatic Case Studies in Psychotherapy}, author={Morgan, Donald}, year={2016}, month={Dec.}, pages={309–318} }
