Early life and education

Andre Marquis was born on August 9, 1972, in Austin, Texas. He earned his Bachelor of Arts degree in Psychology, with a minor in Music, from the University of Texas at Austin in 1994, graduating with highest honors. He continued his studies at Texas State University in San Marcos,[5] where he completed a Master of Education in Counseling and Guidance, also with highest honors, in 1997 and earned his Ph.D. in Counseling and Counselor Education from the University of North Texas in 2002, a program accredited by the Council for Accreditation of Counseling and Related Educational Programs (CACREP).[6]

Career

Marquis began his academic career as an Assistant Professor at Northeastern State University in Oklahoma, where he taught in the Department of Psychology and Counseling from 2002 to 2005.[5] In 2005, he joined the University of Rochester’s Warner Graduate School of Education and Human Development, where he serves as Professor in the Department of Counseling and Human Development.[7] Marquis has served on editorial and advisory boards of the Journal of Unified Psychotherapy and Clinical Science, Journal of Psychotherapy Integration, and the Journal of Integral Theory and Practice.[6] He has also been invited to the Editorial Board of the Encyclopedia of Theory in Counseling and Psychotherapy and the Advisory Board of the Unified Psychotherapy Project Task Force.[3]

Research and scholarly works

Marquis is known for his role in advancing the fifth pathway to psychotherapy integration known as Unification in Psychotherapy.[8][9]

Another major focus of Marquis’s work has been the application of Integral Theory originally developed by philosopher Ken Wilber to counseling and psychotherapy.[2] He developed the Integral Intake assessment instrument, a clinical tool for idiographic assessment based on integral metatheory,[10] and published the book The Integral Intake (Routledge, 2008), which has since been translated into Korean.[11] His research on the Integral Intake has been empirically evaluated and widely cited as one of the first systematic attempts to operationalize Integral Theory within psychotherapy practice.[12]

Marquis co-authored a 2008 article with Ken Wilber in the Journal of Psychotherapy Integration, making him the only psychotherapist to have published jointly with Wilber in an academic journal.[13]

Marquis is the author or co-author of books, including Integral Psychotherapy: A Unifying Approach (Routledge, 2018), Understanding Psychopathology: An Integral Exploration (Pearson, 2014, with R. E. Ingersoll), and The Integral Intake (Routledge, 2008).[14]
