Chapter 9 talks about behavior therapy, behavior therapy is basically observing the behaviors of a client and looking for ways to change these behaviors. Like the other therapies, behavior therapy put the work on the client themselves. This type of therapy stresses doing as opposed to merely talking about the problems and gathering insights. What I don't like about behavior therapy is that it treats symptoms rather than causes. I believe that a cause is the most important thing that should be treated because once you find out what is causing the behavior, you can try to change things to prevent the behavior from happening again. If you just treat the symptoms, the behavior might come back again with different symptoms so I just think that treating the cause is more important.
In chapter 9, It talks about the clients behavior and how they wan to find many ways to help them change it. Maybe even with treatment. I believe people act the way they do because of something that has happen to. I like in the book its says" another way behavior is controlled through punishment" I agree with this because i feel for every action there should be reaction no matter if its good or bad so there fore i think punishment will play a big in things when dealing with a child. I also like the relaxation procedures because i feel like if the client can think of things that will keep them sane with dealing with something that will bring them out of their character i be the relaxation procedures will work. I like find this type of therapy to be helpful
In response to Kambaja, I agree I don't like the fact that behavior therapy only deals with the present issues and not the past. I also agree that if you don't treat the what causes the previous problems than the behavior can come back.
one of the tecniques I like about behavioral therapy is the mindfulness and acceptance therapy, I believe that learning breathing tecniques, meditations and yoga is a good way to relieve stressors and anxiety.
In chapter 9 it talks about behavior therapy, this therapy seems to work on the present behaviors of the person instead of the persons past. this is a therapy that I believe may work for some people but not for all. In therapy I believe getting to the root of problems is the best way to help a person deal with their present issues. by dealing with the present issues and not dealing with the past issues that has caused a person to be the way they are now could cause the persons problems to resurface later in life.
In response to Danielle, I also agree with your summary dealing with behavior therapy. I do not like that this therapy deals with only current issues. Many clients come to therapy because they have tried all the coping strategies and feel that they may need a different approach to their problem but this therapy keeps giving ways to handle a problem you are currently having. The client may need someone to get more into depth of whats really going on and a behavior therapist will not be able to do this. In this situation, the client will have to get a new therapist, and specifically ask for someone that does not do behavior therapy.
In response to Danielle, i agree with what you said and what Alena said because some people just need someone to help them deal with their past situations, so dealing with only the present issues will not be of much help. I have never been to therapy but if I do go, i will want the therapist to help me comprise my past and my present not just the present. Because i believe that the past plays a big part in a person life especially when it comes to their behaviors, personality, ect.
In response to Danielle,I agree his therapy seems to work on the present behaviors of the person instead of the persons past.I also agree with you In therapy getting to the root of problems is the best way to help a person deal with their present issue. I agree you should deal with past first to get all problem out the way then deal your present.
in response to danielle, at first I did not agree with this type of therapy but after thoroughly reading the chapter, I do agree with skinner methods and tecniques of dealing with phobias and anxiety.
Chapter nine was about Behavioral therapy. Behavioral therapy was founded by B.F. skinner. This therapy has to do with the product of learning by using conditioning as well as systematic desensitization. I feel as if this approach would be useful to treat phobias but not much else.
In response to Molly i also agree with you concerning this form of therapy. I do not believe that this therapy will help anyone, especially if they are having problems that are lingering from their past. This therapy focuses more on the present and in most cases problems occur from our past which reflects how we behave currently. I also believe that this could help people with phobias, but in some cases, people could have a phobia from a situation that happened in their past... I dont like this form of therapy.
In response to molly, I believe i really didn't like this kind of theraphy to much because i feel like a person will act out of behavior without thinking when they're really upset or angry.
Chapter 9 talks about behavior therapy. In this overall content, behavior therapy is focused on the current problems and with help from the therapist, its suppose to increase personal choice and create new conditions of therapy. What i found interesting were the treatment goals that are used for the client to do when they are not inside the therapy session. I wasnt sure how to feel about the treatment goals because once a session is over, most clients go about their day, and forget about the things they need to do in order to overcome their current situation. The percentage of whether a client will do this is 50/50 and not sure if it will help the client. But with this technique, it is assumed that the client will make progress because they will now become more aware and allow them to overcome any fears, anxiety, depression etc they started out with when they first came to therapy.
In response to Alena i agree that the treatment goals are very unpredictable and that is why I find this therapy unrealistic. I also think this therapy doesn't always work. depending on the person like you said the goals are only completed by fifty percent of the people. So in actuality this therapy isn't getting to the root of the problem by using only 6-10 sessions. I am not a fan of this therapy and its techniques.
In chapter 9 it talks about behavioral therapy. The behavior therapy is practitioners focus on directly observable behavior and current determinants of behavior.the cognitive behavior therapy is the represents and is a popular theoretical orientation among psychologists.Some of the behavior therapy characteristics are learning are systematically applied to help people change their maldaptive behaviors.The behavior therapy deals with the clients current problems and factors influencing the clients.The clients are involved by assume an active role by engaging in specific actions to deal with their problems.This behavior therapy help the clients overcome their fear.
in response to jeff i enjoyed your summary and i agree with you when you said behavior therapy deals with the clients current problems and factors influencing the clients but when you said behavior therapy help the clients overcome their fear. do you agree with that for all clients?
In chapter nine behavioral therapy is focused on a broad range of psychological disorders, these behaviors are observed and treated through wide range of teqniques. I found this chapter pretty hard to summarize because the treatment of the therapy doesn't really define the issue.the methods that are used during this treatment is social skills training, mind games and relaxing stratergies etc. In my opinion this is not a an effective system to help someone conquer their fears or disorders.
In response to Shabrita, i agree with you because i don't think playing mind games with the client is an affecting way to treat their problems. In fact, i think it will annoy the client and make them not like the therapist. i also think that even though this type of therapy might help the client to over come their fear by "doing" something that they never did before, it still doesn't solve the root of the fear.
In response to shabrita, i also found this chapter kind of hard to summarize to because i feel like no matter if a person get's treatment or not there still going to act the way they want without thinking.
In response to shabrita, I agree the methods that are used during this treatment is social skills training, mind games and relaxing stratergies.I also agree this therapy is for people overcome their fears of life.
Chapter 9 is about Behavior Therapy. Behavior therapy focuses on observable behaviors. They have no particular care in the childhood or underlying problem it's mostly about try to change the person's mindset. The therapeutic goal is to increase personal choice and to create new conditions for learning. The client with the help of the therapist defines specific treatment goals for them to meet. It's not necessarily the best class but it's not the worst.
