  • 73

    What are the goals and techniques of psychoanalysis, and how have they been adapted in psychodynamic therapy?

    Through psychoanalysis, Sigmund Freud tried to give people self-insight and relief from their disorders by bringing anxiety-laden feelings and thoughts into conscious awareness. Psychoanalytic techniques included using free association and interpretation of instances of resustance and trandference. Psychodynamic therapy has been influenced by traditional psychoanalysis but differs from it in many ways, including little aattention to the concepts of id, ego, and superego. This contemporary therapy is briefer, less expensive, and more focused on helping the client find relief from surrent symptoms. Psychodynamic therapists help clients understand how past relationships create themes that may be acted out in present relationships.

  • 74

    What are the basic themes of humanistic therapy? What are the goals and techniques of Rogers' person-sentered approach?

    Both psychodynamic and humanistic therapies are insight therapies-they attempt to improve functioning by increasing people's awareness of motives and defenses. Humanistic therapy's goals include helping people grow in self-awareness and self-acceptance; promoting personal growth rather than curing illness; helping people take responsibility for their own growth; focusing on conscious thoughts rather than unconscious motivations; and seeing the present and future as more important than the past. Carl Rogers' person-centered therapy proposed that therapists' most important contribution is to function as a psychological mirror through active listening and to provide a growth-fostering environment of unconditional positive regard.

  • 75

    How does the basic assumption of behavior therapy differ from the assumptions of psychodynamic and humanistic therapies? What classical conditioning techniques are used in exposure therapies and aversive conditioning?

    Behavior therapies are not insight therapies, and instead assume that problem behaviors are the problem. Their goal is to apply learning principles to modify these problem behaviors. Classical conditioning techniques, including exposure therapies (systematic desensitization or virtual reality exposure therapy) and aversive conditioning, attempt to change behaviors through counterconditioning-evoking new responses to old stimuli that trigger unwanted behaviors.

  • 76

    What is the main premise of therapy based on perant conditioning principles, and what are the views of its proponents and critics?

    Operant conditioning operates under the premise that voluntary behaviors are strongly influenced by their consequences. Therapy based on operant conditioning principles therefore uses behavior modification techniques to change unwanted behaviors by positively reinforcing desired behaviors and ignoring or punishing undesirable behaviors. Critics maintain that 1. techniques such as those used in token economies may produce behavior changes that disappear when rewards end, and 2. deciding which behaviors should change is authoritatian and unethical. Proponents argue that treatment with positive rewards is more humane than punishing people or institutionalizing them for undesired behaviors.

  • 77

    What are the goals and techniques of the cognitive therapies and of the cognitive-behavioral therapy?

    The cognitive therapies (Aaron Beck's cognitive therapy for depression, assume that our thinking colors our feelings, and that the therapist's role is to change clients' self-defeating thinking by training them to perceive and interpret events in more constructive ways. The widely researched and practiced cognitive-behavioral therapy, CBT, combined cognitive therapy and behavior therapy by helping clients regularly try out their new ways of thinking and behaving in their everyday life. A newer CBT variation, dialectical behavior therapy, DBT, combines cognitive tactics for tolerating distress and regulating emotions with social skills training and mindfulness meditation.

  • 78

    What are the aims and benefits of group therapies?

Clients may benefit in person or online from exploring feelings and developing social skills in a group situation, from learning that others have similar problems, and from getting feedback on new ways of behaving.

    Clients' and therapists' positive testimonials cannot prove that psychotherapy is effective, and the placebo effect and confirmation bias make it difficult to judge whether improvement occured because of the treatment. Using meta-analyses to statistically combine the results of 100 of randomized psychotherapy outcome studied, researchers have found that those not undergoing treatment often improve, but those undergoing psychotherapy are more likely to improve more quickly with less risk of relapse.

    No one type of psychotherapy is generally superior to all others. Therapy is most effective for those with clear-cut, specific problems.

Cognitive and cognitive-behavioral therapies have been effective in coping with anxiety, posttraumtic stress disorder, insomnia, and depression; behavioral conditioning therapies with specific behavior problems; psychodynamic therapy for depression and anxiety; and nondirective (client-centered) counseling for mild to moderate depression. Abnormal states tend to return to normal on their own, and the placebo effect can create the impression that a treatment has been effective.

Psychoanalytic techniques included using free association and interpretation of instances of resustance and trandference. Psychodynamic therapy has been influenced by traditional psychoanalysis but differs from it in many ways, including little aattention to the concepts of id, ego, and superego. This contemporary therapy is briefer, less expensive, and more focused on helping the client find relief from surrent symptoms. Psychodynamic therapists help clients understand how past relationships create themes that may be acted out in present relationships.

  • 74

    What are the basic themes of humanistic therapy? What are the goals and techniques of Rogers' person-sentered approach?

    Both psychodynamic and humanistic therapies are insight therapies-they attempt to improve functioning by increasing people's awareness of motives and defenses. Humanistic therapy's goals include helping people grow in self-awareness and self-acceptance; promoting personal growth rather than curing illness; helping people take responsibility for their own growth; focusing on conscious thoughts rather than unconscious motivations; and seeing the present and future as more important than the past. Carl Rogers' person-centered therapy proposed that therapists' most important contribution is to function as a psychological mirror through active listening and to provide a growth-fostering environment of unconditional positive regard.

    Behavior therapies are not insight therapies, and instead assume that problem behaviors are the problem. Their goal is to apply learning principles to modify these problem behaviors. Classical conditioning techniques, including exposure therapies (systematic desensitization or virtual reality exposure therapy) and aversive conditioning, attempt to change behaviors through counterconditioning-evoking new responses to old stimuli that trigger unwanted behaviors.

  • 76

    What is the main premise of therapy based on perant conditioning principles, and what are the views of its proponents and critics?

    Operant conditioning operates under the premise that voluntary behaviors are strongly influenced by their consequences. Therapy based on operant conditioning principles therefore uses behavior modification techniques to change unwanted behaviors by positively reinforcing desired behaviors and ignoring or punishing undesirable behaviors. Critics maintain that 1. techniques such as those used in token economies may produce behavior changes that disappear when rewards end, and 2. deciding which behaviors should change is authoritatian and unethical. Proponents argue that treatment with positive rewards is more humane than punishing people or institutionalizing them for undesired behaviors.

  • 77

    What are the goals and techniques of the cognitive therapies and of the cognitive-behavioral therapy?

    The cognitive therapies (Aaron Beck's cognitive therapy for depression, assume that our thinking colors our feelings, and that the therapist's role is to change clients' self-defeating thinking by training them to perceive and interpret events in more constructive ways. The widely researched and practiced cognitive-behavioral therapy, CBT, combined cognitive therapy and behavior therapy by helping clients regularly try out their new ways of thinking and behaving in their everyday life. A newer CBT variation, dialectical behavior therapy, DBT, combines cognitive tactics for tolerating distress and regulating emotions with social skills training and mindfulness meditation.

Abnormal states tend to return to normal on their own, and the placebo effect can create the impression that a treatment has been effective.
