CBT has been demonstrated to be as effective as, or more effective than, other forms of psychological therapy or psychiatric medications.
CBT is based on several core principles, including: Psychological problems are based, in part, on faulty or unhelpful ways of thinking. Psychological problems are based, in part, on learned patterns of unhelpful behavior. People suffering from psychological problems can learn better ways of coping with them, thereby relieving their symptoms and becoming more effective in their lives.
CBT treatment usually involves efforts to change thinking patterns. These strategies might include: Learning to recognize one’s distortions in thinking that are creating problems, and then to reevaluate them in light of reality. Gaining a better understanding of the behavior and motivation of others. Using problem-solving skills to cope with difficult situations. Learning to develop a greater sense of confidence in one’s own abilities.
CBT treatment also usually involves efforts to change behavioral patterns. These strategies might include: Facing one’s fears instead of avoiding them. Using role playing to prepare for potentially problematic interactions with others. Learning to calm one’s mind and relax one’s body. (American Psychological Association, 2017).
Behavior analysis is the science of behavior, with a history extending back to the early 20th century. Its guiding philosophy is behaviorism, which is based on the premise that attempts to improve the human condition through behavior change (e.g., education, behavioral health treatment) will be most effective if behavior itself is the primary focus.
To date, behavior-analytic scientists have conducted thousands of studies to identify the laws of behavior—the predictable ways in which behavior is learned and how it changes over time. The underlying theme of much of this work has been that behavior is a product of its circumstances, particularly the events that immediately follow the behavior. Behavior analysts have used this information to develop numerous techniques and treatment approaches for analyzing and changing behavior, and ultimately, to improve lives. Because this approach applied behavior analysis (ABA) is largely based on behavior and its consequences, techniques generally involve teaching individuals more effective ways of behaving through positive reinforcement and working to change the social consequences of existing behavior. Treatment approaches based on ABA have been empirically shown to be effective in a wide variety of areas (BACB, 2023).
Structural Family Therapy is focuses on the interactions between family members. We look at the family as a system to improve communication between members of the family and organizations while encouraging adjustments in the rules that govern how the family functions among their daily lives at school, work, and social engagements.
The distinctive features are the conceptions of the family as a structural system, and the active engagement of the therapist in process of restructuring the way the system works in order to adjust the elements that cause dysfunction. Restructuring boundaries, hierarchies of power, interaction with community resources, and reactive handling impacting major life necessities.
SFT allows everyone in the family to hear the viewpoint of the others, and allows the therapist to observe and guide family interactions in real life. Advocating and attaining resources to improve the family dynamics are explored. Referrals for appropriate resources to secure educational and medical rights are ensured. (American Psychological Association, 2022).
