Abstract
The use of humor in psychotherapy has been reviewed many years ago (in fact, too many to count) by Shaughnessy and
Wadsworth [1]. The use of humor continues to be contentiously discussed, first of all because there are different types of
"humor". Seminal work was done by Shaughnessy [2], Peter and Dana [3] and Shaughnessy [4] as well as by Fry and Salameh
[5].
