The three-stage selection process identified 79 interesting papers that were then evaluated more closely using seven criteria. A final list of 35 recent articles were sorted into eight award categories with 4–5 nominated articles within each award category. Two additional awards were used to highlight older papers that have had lasting impact on the field and to show respect for several of the forgotten pioneers in the field of psychotherapy. A panel of panel of judges read and rated each article to identify the most valuable article within each category. The present article highlights the award process as well as the most valuable articles published during the previous year.
