Examples of cognitive-behavioral therapy in the following topics:
-
- Cognitive and cognitive-behavioral therapies address the interplay between dysfunctional emotions, maladaptive behaviors, and biased cognitions.
- Cognitive therapy (CT) and cognitive-behavioral therapy (CBT) are closely related; however CBT is an umbrella category of therapies that includes cognitive therapy.
- The category refers to behavior therapy, cognitive therapy, and therapies based on a combination of basic behavioral and cognitive principles and research, including dialectical behavior therapy.
- At its most basic level, it is a combination of cognitive therapy and behavioral therapy.
- During the 1980s and 1990s, cognitive and behavioral techniques were merged into cognitive-behavioral therapy.
-
- Behaviorism and behavioral therapy developed in the 1920s, relying on principles of operant conditioning, classical conditioning, and social-learning theory to bring about therapeutic change in observable symptoms.
- These methods focus exclusively on behaviors, or on behaviors in combination with thoughts and feelings that might be causing them.
- Those who practice behavioral therapy tend to look more at specific, learned behaviors and how the environment has an impact on those behaviors.
- Cognitive therapy seeks to identify maladaptive cognitions (thoughts), appraisals, beliefs, and reactions, with the aim of influencing destructive negative emotions.
- CBT combines cognitive therapy and behavioral therapy to address maladaptive cognitions as well as dysfunctional behaviors.
-
- Behavior therapy is based on the idea that maladaptive behavior is learned, and thus adaptive behavior can also be learned.
- Behavior therapy is a treatment approach that is based on the idea that abnormal behavior is learned.
- In the second half of the 20th century, many therapists coupled behavior therapy with the cognitive therapy of Aaron Beck and Albert Ellis, forming cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT).
- Two large studies done by the Faculty of Health Sciences at Simon Fraser University indicates that behavior therapy and cognitive-behavioral therapy (CBT) are equally effective for OCD.
- Discuss the goals, techniques, and efficacy of behavior therapy and applied behavior analysis
-
- One such approach is psychodynamic therapy, which studies the psychological forces underlying human behavior, feelings, and emotions, as well as how they may relate to early childhood experience.
- Psychodynamic theory emphasizes the systematic study of the psychological forces that underlie human behavior.
- In the treatment of psychological distress, psychodynamic therapies target the client's inner conflict, from where repressed behaviors and emotions surface into the patient's consciousness.
- In 2013, the world's largest randomized controlled trial on therapy with anorexia outpatients, the ANTOP study, proved modified psychodynamic therapy to be more effective than cognitive behavioral therapy in the long term.
- A French 2004 report from INSERM said that psychodynamic therapy is less effective than other psychotherapies (including cognitive behavioral therapy) for certain diseases.
-
- Expressive therapy, also known as expressive arts therapy and creative arts therapy, is the use of the creative arts as a form of therapy.
- Transgenerational therapy: dealing with transgenerational transmission of unhelpful patterns of belief and behavior.
- There was initially a strong influence from psychoanalysis (most of the early founders of the field had psychoanalytic backgrounds) and social psychiatry, and later from learning theory and behavior therapy.
- According to a 2004 French government study, family and couples therapy was the second most effective therapy after cognitive-behavioral therapy.
- Using this method, families can be helped by finding patterns of behavior, what the causes are, and what can be done to better their situation.
-
- Psychotherapists employ a range of techniques based on experiential relationship-building, dialogue, communication, and behavior change that are designed to improve the mental health of a client or to improve family or group relationships (such as in a family).
- In addition to the more common forms of psychotherapy (including humanistic, cognitive-behavioral, and psychodynamic approaches), there are several alternative, body-oriented therapies that serve specific purposes.
- Hypnotherapy is a form of psychotherapy used to create unconscious change in the patient in the form of new responses, thoughts, attitudes, behaviors, or feelings.
- As with many alternative therapies, body-oriented therapy is criticized for its lack of scientific validation and empirical evidence.
- In addition, the importance of ethical issues in body-oriented therapy has been highlighted on account of the intimacy of the techniques used in several kinds of therapies.
-
- Forms of therapy include, but are not limited to: psychoanalytic, gestalt, existential, person-centered, reality, Adlerian, transactional analysis, rational-emotive behavior, and behavior therapies.
- A criticism of Gestalt therapy is that clients tend to have highly emotional moments, which can hinder a cognitive analysis due to the therapist focusing on the emotion.
- One criticism of reality therapy is that it discounts past or traumatic experiences as influences of current behaviors.
- Adlerian therapy was founded by Alfred Adler, who believed in social determinants for behavior such as the influence of the past and social relations.
- Behavior therapy focuses on behavior and uses the scientific method as a means of approaching maladaptive behaviors.
