2016, M S Ahluwalia Psychology Learners Basic tenets of Psychoanalytic Therapy 5 A1 Psychoanalytic or psychodynamic psychotherapy draws on theories and practices of analytical psychology and psychoanalysis. It is a therapeutic process which helps patients understand and resolve their problems by increasing awareness of their inner world and its influence over relationships both past and present. It differs from most other therapies in aiming for deep seated change in personality and emotional development. Basic Tenets of Psychoanalytic Therapy Psychoanalytic psychotherapy is based on a number of tenets. These include: 1. The Unconscious: The idea that some mental processes, such as motives, desires, and memories are not available to awareness or conscious introspection. It is often referred to as unconscious mental functioning or unconscious processing. Unconscious forms the largest part of the human psyche. It is not within our awareness, but can be explored indirectly through psychoanalysis. The two key drives are Eros (Libido or Life drive) and Thanatos (Aggression or Death drive). 2. Defense mechanism: While some mental processes are out of our awareness, this is a process in which people are also motivated to push threatening thoughts or feelings from awareness. Intrapsychic conflict between Id and SuperEgo leads to anxiety. Ego defence mechanisms are normal and healthy methods to mediate this conflict by denying or distorting reality to protect the fragile balance of the psyche. Includes repression, denial, projection, displacement, sublimation, reaction formation and compensation. 3. Developmental Perspective: Childhood relationships with caregivers are seen as playing a role in shaping current relationships. The theory is probabilistic in regards to this relationship. The developmental perspective is covered in the psychosexual and psychosocial stages of development laid out in psychoanalysis.

2016, M S Ahluwalia Psychology Learners Basic tenets of Psychoanalytic Therapy contd. 6 A1 4. Individual or Personal meaning of events: Psychodynamic clinicians are interested in the patient’s phenomenological experience – how the patient experiences himself, important others, the world in general. In this way the psychodynamic clinicians are focused on what is called schema or schemata in CBT terminology. They are seen as having explicit, conscious and implicit unconscious aspects. 5. Transference: The tendency to unwittingly construct and create, through an active but unconscious process, the pattern of imagined and real past relationships with an important person. The creation of the transference derives from the patient. Most often, the patient “creates” the transference out of an active, though unconscious, aspect of repeating a past experience. 6. Counter-transference: The experience of transference by analysts and therapists. The analyst’s awareness and attention to countertransference permits the analyst/therapist to have a fuller appreciation of the drama of the patient’s life. The analyst does not act on the countertransference but rather uses her awareness of these feelings as further information to inform the understanding of the patient’s world. 7. Resistance: It has two aspects, viz. a. Neutrality: The stance which the analyst/therapist takes in which he or she does not express personal preferences to the patient and does not ally himself or herself with important dimensions of the patient’s conflict. b. Abstinence: the analyst avoids gratifying the patient’s wishes, whatever those might be—praise or punishment—direction or to be left alone.

2016, M S Ahluwalia Psychology Learners Difference with Neo-Psychoanalytic Models 7 A1 Neo-Freudian psychologists were thinkers who agreed with many of the fundamental tenets of Freud's psychoanalytic theory but changed and adapted the approach to incorporate their own beliefs, ideas, and opinions. There are a few different reasons why these neo-Freudian thinkers disagreed with Freud. For example, Erik Erikson believed that Freud was incorrect to think that personality was shaped almost entirely by childhood events. Other issues that motivated neo-Freudian thinkers included: • Freud's emphasis on sexual urges as a primary motivator. • Freud's negative view of human nature. • Freud's belief that personality was shaped entirely by early childhood experiences. • Freud's lack of emphasis on social and cultural influences on behavior and personality. There were a number of neo-Freudian thinkers who broke with the Freudian psychoanalytic tradition to develop their own psychodynamic theories. Some of these individuals were initially part of Freud's inner circle. Carl Jung Freud and Jung once had a close friendship, but Jung broke away to form his own ideas. Jung referred to his theory of personality as analytical psychology, and he introduced the concept of the collective unconscious. He described this as a universal structure shared by all members of the same species containing all of the instincts and archetypes that influence human behavior. Jung still placed great emphasis on the unconscious, but his theory placed a higher emphasis on his concept of the collective unconscious rather than the personal unconscious. Like many of the other neo-Freudian's, Jung also focused less on sex than did Freud.

IGNOU MAPC material©
2016, M S Ahluwalia Psychology Learners Difference with Neo-Psychoanalytic Models contd. 8 A1 Alfred Adler Adler believed that Freud's theories focused too heavily on sex as the primary motivator for human behavior. Instead, Adler placed a lesser emphasis on the role of the unconscious and a greater focus on interpersonal and social influences. His approach, known as individual psychology, was centered on the drive that all people have to compensate for their feelings of inferiority. The inferiority complex, he suggested, was a person's feelings and doubts that they do not measure up to other people or to society's expectations. Erik Erikson While Freud believed that personality was mostly set in stone during early childhood, Erikson felt that development continued throughout life. He also believed that not all conflicts were unconscious. Many were conscious and the result, he thought, from the developmental process itself. Erikson de-emphasized the role of sex as a motivator for behavior and instead placed a much stronger focus on the role of social relationships. Karen Horney Horney was one of the first women trained in psychoanalysis, and she was also one of the first to criticize Freud's depictions of women as inferior to men. Horney objected to Freud's portrayal of women as suffering from "penis envy." Instead, she suggested that men experience "womb envy" because they are unable to bear children. Her theory focuses on how behavior was influenced by a number of different neurotic needs.

2016, M S Ahluwalia Psychology Learners Summary and Sources 9 A1 Freud is considered the father of Psychoanalysis. And his technique forms the base of the psychoanalytic therapy, also known as the talking cure. The psychoanalytic psychotherapy is based on a number of tenets viz. The Unconscious, Defense Mechanisms, Developmental Perspective, Individual or Personal meaning of events, Transference, Counter-transference and Resistance. Several psychologists close to Freud branched out to conceptualise their own models with psychoanalytic underpinnings. Most of them had reservations about the importance to sex and lack of social focus. These included Jung, Adler, Horney and Erikson amongst others. * * * Sources: http://psychology.about.com/od/psychoanalytictheories/f/neo-freudian.htm Core Approaches in Counselling and Psychotherapy by Fay Short and Phil Thomas (free preview) Clinical Psychology: Assessment, Treatment, and Research edited by David C.S.

2016, M S Ahluwalia Psychology Learners Discuss the concept and applications of behaviour modification. What are the various methods used in behaviour modification? Explain with suitable examples. Q2. 10
11.
IGNOU MAPC material©
2016, M S Ahluwalia Psychology Learners Concept of Behavior Modification 11 A2 Behavior modification is the use of empirically demonstrated behavior change techniques to increase or decrease the frequency of behaviors, such as altering an individual's behaviors and reactions to stimuli through positive and negative reinforcement of adaptive behavior and/or the reduction of behavior through its extinction, punishment and/or satiation. Concept of Behavior Modification Behavior modification is based on methodological behaviorism, which refers to limiting behavior-change procedures to behaviors that are observable—in particular, superimposing consequences, such as increasing or decreasing the frequency of behaviors and altering an individual's behaviors through positive and negative reinforcement to increase desirable behavior and/or the reduction of behavior through extinction and punishment. Behavior modification uses the principles of operant conditioning, which were developed by American behaviorist B. F. Skinner (1904-1990). Skinner formulated the concept of operant conditioning, through which behavior could be shaped by reinforcement or lack of it. Skinner considered his concept applicable to a wide range of both human and animal behaviors and introduced operant conditioning to the general public in his 1938 book, The Behavior of Organisms . Martin and Pear indicate that there are seven characteristics to behavior modification, namely: - strong emphasis on defining problems in terms of behavior that can be measured in some way - treatment techniques are ways of altering an individual's current environment to help him/her function more fully - methods and rationales can be described precisely - techniques are often applied in everyday life - techniques are based largely on principles of learning specifically operant conditioning and respondent conditioning - There is a strong emphasis on scientific demonstration that a particular technique was responsible for a particular behavior change - There is a strong emphasis on accountability for everyone involved in a behavior modification program.

2016, M S Ahluwalia Psychology Learners Applications of Behavior Modification and Methods used 12 A2 Applications of Behavior Modification Behavior modification can be useful in a variety of situations: 1. Treatment of problems: a. Clinical Psychology: Behavior modification has been successfully used to treat obsessive-compulsive disorder (OCD), attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder (ADHD), phobias, enuresis (bed-wetting), generalized anxiety disorder , and separation anxiety disorder , among others. b. Health Psychology: to increase compliance with medical regimens c. Issues with children: helps treat problems such as bedwetting, noncompliance etc. d. Mental Illnesses: Used to modify behaviors of patients with chronic mental illness e. Developmental Disabilities: To reduce self-injurious behaviors, aggressive and destructive behaviors in such patients f. Rehabilitation: Used to improve the efficacy of rehabilitation routines and decrease problem behaviors 2. To increase desired behaviors in various settings: a. Sports: increasing healthy lifestyle behaviors b. Foster homes and prisons: helps in reducing recidivism for adolescents with conduct problems and adult offenders c. Community: to increase desired behaviors in the community. Ex: compliance with law d. Industry: to enhance productivity and sales by influencing employee and consumer behavior e. Schools and Colleges: to improve the pedagogy to ensure maximum learning by students Methods used in Behavior Modification Behavior modification methods can be divided into five categories: 1. Developing a new behavior: a. Successive Approximation Principle: To teach a person to act in a manner in which he has seldom or never before behaved, reward successive steps to the final behavior (also called shaping)
13.
IGNOU MAPC material©
2016, M S Ahluwalia Psychology Learners Methods used in Behavior Modification 13 A2 b. Continuous Reinforcement Principle: To develop a new behavior that the person has not previously exhibited, arrange for an immediate reward after each correct performance. c. Negative Reinforcement Principle: To increase a person’s performance in a particular way, arrange for him to avoid or escape a mild aversive situation by improving his behavior or by allowing him to avoid the aversive situation by behaving appropriately. d. Cueing Principle: To teach a person to remember to act at a specific time, arrange for him to receive a cue for the correct performance just before the action is expected rather than after he has performed it incorrectly. 2. Strengthening a behavior: a. Decreasing Reinforcement Principle: To encourage a person to continue performing an established behavior with few or no rewards, gradually require a longer time period or more correct responses before a correct behavior is rewarded. b. Variable Reinforcement Principle: To improve or increase a person’s performance of a certain activity, provide the child with an intermittent reward. 3. Maintaining an established behavior: a. Substitution Principle: To change reinforcers when a previously effective reward is no longer controlling behavior, present it just before (or as soon as possible to) the time you present the new, hopefully more effective reward. 4. Stopping inappropriate behavior a. Satiation Principle: allow the person to continue (or insist that he continue) performing the undesired act until he tires of it. b. Extinction Principle: To stop a person from acting in a particular way, you may arrange conditions so that he receives no rewards following the undesired act.
14.
IGNOU MAPC material©
2016, M S Ahluwalia Psychology Learners Methods used in Behavior Modification contd. 14 A2 c. Incompatible Alternative Principle: To stop a person from acting in a particular way, you may reward an alternative action that is inconsistent with or cannot be performed at the same time as the undesired act. d. Response Cost Principle: To stop a person from acting in a certain way, remove a pleasant stimulus immediately after the action occurs. Since response cost results in increased hostility and aggression, it should only be used infrequently and in conjunction with reinforcement. e. Punishment: i. Positive Punishment: adding a negative consequence after an undesired behavior is emitted to decrease future responses. Disapproval, criticism, pain and fines are common forms. ii. Negative Punishment: taking away a certain desired item after the undesired behavior happens in order to decrease future responses. iii. Overcorrection: Can involve practicing correct behaviors after making mistakes (positive practice) or correcting a mistake (restitution) 5. Modifying emotional behavior: a. Avoidance Principle: To teach a person to avoid a certain type of situation, simultaneously present to the child the situation to be avoided (or some representation of it) and some aversive condition (or its representation). b. Fear Reduction Principle: To help a person overcome his fear of a particular situation, gradually increase his exposure to the feared situation while he is otherwise comfortable, relaxed, secure or rewarded.

The methods used in Behavior modification can be categorized into five sets – developing a new behavior, strengthening a behavior, maintaining an established behavior, stopping inappropriate behavior and modifying emotional behavior. * * * Sources: http://www.minddisorders.com/knowledge/Behavior_modification.html https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Behavior_modification http://www.minddisorders.com/A-Br/Behavior-modification.html http://www.livestrong.com/article/105661-behavior-modification/ http://nspt4kids.com/parenting/the-difference-between-positive-and-negative-punishment/

2016, M S Ahluwalia Psychology Learners Goals of client-centered therapy 17 A3 Client-centered therapy differs from other forms of therapy because client-centered therapy does not focus on therapeutic techniques. What's most important in client-centered therapy is the quality of the relationship between the therapist and the client. Client-centered therapy was not intended for a specific age group or subpopulation, but has been used to treat a broad range of people. It has been applied for use with people suffering from depression, anxiety, alcohol disorders, cognitive dysfunction, schizophrenia, and personality disorders. Goals of Client-centered therapy Basic goals for the client: Considering this is a non-directive technique the therapist does not prescribe the goals. Instead the client chooses his own goals, and also bears the responsibility of the treatment process. However there are some basic goals that are there – the four basic goals a person will achieve in successful person-centered therapy. They will become: 1. open to experience - more positive and comfortable relationships with others; and an increased capacity to experience and express feelings at the moment they occur. 2. learn to trust themselves and have increased self-esteem: thus, have lower levels of defensiveness, guilt, and insecurity. 3. develop an internal evaluation of themselves: include closer agreement between the client's idealized and actual selves; better self-understanding 4. have a willingness to continue growing. Goal for the therapist: A major goal is to provide a climate of safety and trust in the therapeutic setting so that the client, by using the therapeutic relationship for self-exploration, can become aware of blocks to growth. The client tends to move toward more openness, greater self-trust, more willingness to evolve as opposed to being a fixed product, and a tendency to live by internal standards as opposed to taking external cues for what he or she should become.

2016, M S Ahluwalia Psychology Learners Process of client-centered therapy 18 A3 The aim of therapy is not merely to solve problems but to assist in the growth process, which will enable the client to better cope with present and future problems. Person-centered therapists are in agreement on the matter of not setting goals for what clients need to change, yet they differ on the matter of how to best help clients achieve their own goals. Process of client-centered therapy The three phases are: 1. Catharsis: Catharsis involves a gradual and more complete expression of emotionalized attitudes. The conversation goes from superficial problems and attitudes to deeper problems and attitudes. This process of exploration gradually unearths relevant attitudes which have been denied to consciousness. 2. Insight: involves more adequate facing of reality as it exists within the self, as well as external reality; that it involves the relating of problems to each other, the perception of patterns of behavior; that it involves the acceptance of hitherto denied elements of the self, and a reformulating of the self-concept; and that it involves the making of new plans. 3. Positive choice and action: In the final phase, the choice of new ways of behaving will be in conformity with the newly organized concept of the self; that first steps in putting these plans into action will be small but symbolic; that the individual will feel only a minimum degree of confidence that he can put his plans into effect, that later steps implement more and more completely the new concept of self, and that this process continues beyond the conclusion of the therapeutic interviews. Roger further described the continua of change in a client comprising of the following seven stages: 1. Loosening of feelings 2. Change in the manner of experiencing: therapists have a modest amount of success working with clients at this stage 3. Shift from incongruence to Congruence: Therapy typically begins at this stage

2016, M S Ahluwalia Psychology Learners Process of client-centered therapy contd. 19 A3 4. Change in the manner and extent of communication 5. Loosening of the cognitive maps of experience 6. Change in the individual’s relationship to his problems: the moments of immediate, full accepted experiencing are in some sense almost irreversible 7. Change in the manner of relating There is a stage beyond therapy in which the client is not much in need of the therapist’s help – ‘transference cure’. Rogers believed that the most important factor in successful therapy was not the therapist's skill or training, but rather his or her attitude. Three interrelated attitudes on the part of the therapist are central to the success of person-centered therapy: 1. Congruence refers to the therapist's openness and genuineness—the willingness to relate to clients without hiding behind a professional facade. Therapists who function in this way have all their feelings available to them in therapy sessions and may share significant emotional reactions with their clients. 2. Unconditional positive regard means that the therapist accepts the client totally for who he or she is without evaluating or censoring, and without disapproving of particular feelings, actions, or characteristics. The therapist communicates this attitude to the client by a willingness to listen without interrupting, judging, or giving advice. 3. The third necessary component of a therapist's attitude is empathy ("accurate empathetic understanding"). The therapist tries to appreciate the client's situation from the client's point of view, showing an emotional understanding of and sensitivity to the client's feelings throughout the therapy session. According to Rogers, when these three attitudes (congruence, unconditional positive regard, and empathy) are conveyed by a therapist, clients can freely express themselves without having to worry about what the therapist thinks of them. The therapist merely facilitates self-actualization by providing a climate in which clients can freely engage in focused, in-depth self-exploration.

23.
IGNOU MAPC material©
2016, M S Ahluwalia Psychology Learners Techniques used in interpersonal therapy 23 A4 It is the focus on extra-therapeutic interpersonal relationships rather than any particular intervention which characterizes IPT. Not surprisingly, given its psychodynamic roots, IPT incorporates a number of “traditional” psychotherapeutic methods, such as exploration, clarification, and even some directive techniques. The techniques used in interpersonal therapy are discussed below: Nonspecific Techniques Nonspecific techniques are generally understood as those that are held in common across most psychotherapies. Examples would be the use of Directive and Non-Directive techniques such as open-ended questions, clarifications, and the expression of empathy by the therapist. These techniques play a crucial role in IPT, as they serve to help the therapist understand the patient’s experience, convey that understanding to the patient, and to provide information regarding the genesis of the patient’s problems and potential solutions to them. Techniques such as problem solving with the patient, giving directives, and assigning homework can also be used judiciously in the service of facilitating interpersonal change. Communication Analysis and Interpersonal Incidents Communication analysis requires that the therapist elicit information from the patient about important interpersonal incidents. Interpersonal incidents are descriptions by the patient of specific interactions with a significant other. The goal in working through an interpersonal incident is to examine the patient’s communication so that maladaptive patterns of communication can be identified. The patient can then begin to modify his or her communication so that his or her attachment needs are better met.

2016, M S Ahluwalia Psychology Learners Techniques used in interpersonal therapy, Summary and Sources 24 A4 Use of Affect The more the patient is affectively involved in the issues being discussed, the greater the motivation to change behavior or communication style. Consequently, one of the most important tasks for the IPT therapist is to attend to the patient’s affective state. Of particular importance are those moments in therapy in which the patient’s observed affective state, and his or her subjectively reported affect, are incongruent. Examining this inconsistency in affect can often lead to breakthroughs in therapy. Use of Transference By observing the developing transference, the therapist can begin to draw hypotheses about the way that the patient interacts with others outside of the therapeutic relationship. Sullivan coined the term “parataxic distortion” to describe this phenomena: The way in which a patient relates to the therapist in session is a reflection of the way in which he or she relates to others as well. Using these data, the therapist can then begin to draw conclusions about the patient’s attachment style and problems in communicating to others. The therapist should ask questions to confirm or disprove these hypotheses. * * * IPT is a time-limited, dynamically informed psychotherapy that aims to alleviate patients’ suffering and improve their interpersonal functioning. To achieve these objectives it makes use of several techniques viz. Directive and non-directive exploration, Clarifications, Communication Analysis and Interpersonal incidents, Use of Affect and Use of Transference.

IGNOU MAPC material©
2016, M S Ahluwalia Psychology Learners Process of Cognitive Behaviour Therapy 26 A5 Cognitive-behavioral therapy is an action-oriented form of psychosocial therapy that assumes that maladaptive, or faulty, thinking patterns cause maladaptive behavior and "negative" emotions. The treatment focuses on changing an individual's thoughts (cognitive patterns) in order to change his or her behavior and emotional state. The process of CBT is as follows: 1. Rapport formation and Client engagement: Build a relationship with the client by using the core human elements of empathy, warmth and respect. Look out for any negative impacters such as interview related anxiety. Thereafter, build confidence in them that change is possible using CBT. Knowing that CBT will help them will engage them into the treatment. 2. Assessment: This step focuses on assessment of three things - the problem, the person, and the situation. Some of the most common areas that are assessed include a. Symptoms - Severity of the problem b. Predisposing factors - Client’s personal and social history, Relevant personality factors c. Precipitating factors - Non-psychological causative factors d. Triggers - Presence of any related clinical disorders e. Beliefs and assumptions - Client’s view of the problem f. Maintenance processes - Secondary disturbances 3. Preparation: After the assessment, the client is prepared for the therapy. The preparation involves helping the client understand the treatment goals, assessing client’s motivation levels for therapy and increasing client’s knowledge about CBT. This is followed by discussing approaches to be used and the implications of treatment. Once the discussion has happened a contract is developed. 4. Implementation: In this phase the treatment program that is found most suitable based on the above steps is implemented. The treatment program involves using activities such as Socratic questioning, identifying cognitive errors, experimentation, changing self-talk from negative to positive, homework tasks and thought recording/rational analysis.

2016, M S Ahluwalia Psychology Learners Process of Cognitive Behaviour Therapy, Summary and Sources 27 A5 Supplementary strategies & techniques may include : relaxation training, interpersonal skills training, etc. 5. Evaluation: After the implementation phase an evaluation is conducted to assess whether improvement is due to significant changes in the client’s thinking, or due to an improvement in their external circumstances. 6. Termination: Finally, the client is prepared for the termination of therapy, so that if they slip back and discover their old problems are still present to some degree, they don’t despair and continue their self-help work. Clients should be warned about possibility of relapse and apprised of appropriate next steps. They should also be coached on seeking help again in case of relapse. * * * In Cognitive Behavior Therapy the more the client knows about how the problem works and about the techniques to manage and overcome the problem, the more the client can become their own therapist. The CBT process is designed to help achieve this goal and involves the following steps: rapport formation and client engagement, assessment, preparation, implementation, evaluation, and termination.

29.
IGNOU MAPC material©
2016, M S Ahluwalia Psychology Learners Solution focused therapy and its features 29 A6 Steve deShazer conceptualized therapy as a search for solutions rather than an exploration and analysis of problems. This solution-focused approach, can be readily adapted to the single-session framework. By focusing on client goals and quickly initiating a search for imagined or experienced exceptions to client patterns, solution-focused therapists are able to quickly move treatment to an action phase, greatly abbreviating the change process. Features of solution focused therapy 1. Solution focus: A movement from problem-talk to solution-talk and a focus on keeping therapy simple and brief. There are exceptions to every problem, and by talking about these exceptions, clients are able to conquer what seem to be gigantic problems. 2. Client is competent: Solution-focused therapists make the assumption that clients are competent and that the therapist’s role is to help clients recognize the competencies they already possess and apply them toward solutions. 3. Focus on what is working: Thus, attention is paid to what is working, and clients are encouraged to do more of this. Change is constant and inevitable, and a small change leads to other changes until the “solution momentum” outweighs the problem momentum. 4. Pathology is not the focus: Little attention is paid to pathology or to giving clients a diagnostic label. A therapist’s not-knowing stance creates an opportunity for the client to construct a solution. 5. Focus on client’s agenda: SFT attends to the problem presented by the client. The closer the counselor can keep to the client’s agenda, the more likely the client will be motivated to change.

2016, M S Ahluwalia Psychology Learners Treatment Principles, Summary and Sources 30 A6 Treatment principles of solution focused therapy Working together in a collaborative relationship, both the therapist and client develop useful treatment goals. The underlying treatment principles, applicable to both, are: •Complex problems do not necessarily require complex solutions: It is possible that there is a simple solution for the most complex of problems being faced by the client. •Fix what is broken: People are not problems, they have problems. Don’t treat the clients as being sick or damaged. Look for what is healthy and functioning in their lives. •A small change can cause big changes: The therapist attempts to create an atmosphere of understanding and acceptance that allows individuals to tap their resources for making constructive changes. •Repeat what works: Encourage the clients to continue what they can do well. This will build their confidence. This constructive behaviour may have started prior to the counseling. •Stop what doesn’t work: Encourage the clients to do something different (almost anything) to break the failure cycle. •Simple counseling: Don’t begin a search for hidden explanations and unconscious factors. Focus on the problem and finding its solution. * * * The solution-focused model emphasizes the role of clients establishing their own goals and preferences. This is done when a climate of mutual respect, dialogue, inquiry, and affi rmation are a part of the therapeutic process. We also discussed the various features and treatment principles of solution focused therapy.

IGNOU MAPC material©
2016, M S Ahluwalia Psychology Learners Attachment Based Interventions 32 A7 Attachment-based interventions are based on attachment theory, originated by John Bowlby. These range from individual therapeutic approaches to public health programs to interventions specifically designed for foster cares. Following are approaches used by mainstream attachment theorists and clinicians aimed at infants or children who have developed or are at risk of developing less desirable, insecure attachment styles or an attachment disorder. Dyadic developmental psychotherapy: For families that have children with symptoms of emotional disorders, including complex trauma and disorders of attachment. The "dyad" referred to must eventually be the parent-child dyad. It involves creating a "playful, accepting, curious, and empathic" environment in which the therapist attunes to the child's "subjective experiences" and reflects this back to the child. Child–parent psychotherapy (CPP): This approach to treating disturbed infant–parent relationships is based on the theory that disturbances are manifestations of unresolved conflicts in the parent's past relationships. The "patient" is the infant–parent relationship. 'Circle of Security': The aim is to present ideas to the parents in a user-friendly, common-sense fashion that they can understand both cognitively and emotionally. This is done by a graphic representation of the child's needs and attachment system in circle form, summarising the child's needs and the safe haven provided by the caregiver. "Watch, wait and wonder", Cohen et al. (1999): It is based on the notion of the infant as initiator in infant–parent psychotherapy. The idea is that it increases the mother's sensitivity and responsiveness by fostering an observational reflective stance, whilst also being physically accessible. Also the infant has the experience of negotiating their relationship with their mother. "Manipulation of sensitive responsiveness", van den Boom (1994) (The Leiden Programs): This intervention was based on Ainsworth's sensitive responsiveness components, namely perceiving a signal, interpreting it correctly, selecting an appropriate response and implementing the response effectively.

2016, M S Ahluwalia Psychology Learners Attachment Based Interventions, Summary and Sources 33 A7 "Modified interaction guidance", Benoit et al. (2001): This intervention aimed to reduce inappropriate caregiver behaviours as measured on the AMBIANCE (atypical maternal behaviour instrument for assessment and classification). Such inappropriate behaviours are thought to contribute to disorganized attachment. Feedback methods such as VIPP, CAVES and VIG: Videofeedback intervention to promote positive parenting (VIPP) aims to promote maternal sensitivity through the review of taped infant–parent interactions and written materials. Clinician assisted videofeedback exposure sessions (CAVES)and VIG (video interaction guidance)are the other two methods. Attachment and biobehavioral catch-up (ABC): This an intervention programme aimed at infants who have experienced early adverse care and disruptions in care. It aims to provide specialized help for foster carers, targetting key issues: providing nurturance for infants when the carers are not comfortable providing nurturance, overriding tendencies to respond in kind to infant behaviors and providing a predictable interpersonal environment. * * * According to attachment theory attachment behavior in adults towards the child includes responding sensitively and appropriately to the child’s needs. Attachment based interventions are based on this premise. The various techniques that leverage this include Dyadic Developmental Theory, CPP, Circle of Security, Wait, Watch and Wonder, ABC etc. Sources: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Attachment-based_therapy_(children) https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dyadic_developmental_psychotherapy http://www.simplypsychology.org/attachment.html

IGNOU MAPC material©
2016, M S Ahluwalia Psychology Learners Importance of psychotherapies with reference to cancer and AIDS patients 35 A8 As treatment for cancer has become more effective, it is better thought of as a chronic rather than a terminal illness. However, it is a progressive disease, and approximately half of all people diagnosed with cancer will eventually die of it. On the other hand, the treatment of AIDS is still being researched. The patients of both these and other terminally- ill diseases need care. Care is “the process of helping ill people with cancer and AIDS live as well and as long as possible.” Importance of Psychotherapies 1. Social Support: Psychotherapy, especially in groups, can provide a new social network with the common bond of facing similar problems. Members also find that the process of giving help to others enhances their own sense of mastery of the role of cancer patient and their self-esteem, giving meaning to an otherwise meaningless tragedy. 2. Emotional Expression: The expression of emotion is important in reducing social isolation and improving coping. When unbidden thoughts involving fears of dying and death intrude, they can be better managed by patients who know that there is a time and a place during which such feelings will be expressed, acknowledged, and dealt with. 3. Processing Existential Concerns: Death anxiety in particular is intensified by isolation, in part because we often conceptualize death in terms of separation from loved ones. Feeling alone, makes one feel already a little bit dead, setting off a cycle of further anxiety. This can be addressed by psychotherapeutic techniques that directly address such concerns. 4. Reorganizing Life Priorities and Living in the Present: The acceptance of the possibility of illness shortening life carries with it an opportunity for reevaluating life priorities. When cure is not possible, a realistic evaluation of the future can help those with life-threatening illness make the best use of remaining time.

Enhancing Family Support: Psychotherapeutic interventions is quite helpful in improving communication, identifying needs, increasing role flexibility, and adjusting to new medical, social, vocational, and financial realities. 6. Improving Communication with Physicians: Groups provide mutual encouragement to get questions answered, to participate actively in treatment decisions, and to consider alternatives carefully. 7. Symptom Control: Treatment involves teaching cognitive techniques to manage anxiety like learning to identify emotions as they develop, analyze sources of emotional response, and move from emotion- focused to problem-focused coping. Goals of the Therapy Process •Personalization: Facilitating an examination of personal and specific cancer-related issues. •Affective expression: Facilitating the expression of here- and-now feelings •Supportive group interaction: o Facilitating supportive interactions among group members, o Sharing group time and access to group attention, o Avoiding scapegoating o Maintaining boundaries •Active coping: Facilitating the use of active coping strategies * * * Therapy for cancer and AIDS patients involves attention to enhancing social support; encouraging emotional expression and processing; confronting existential concerns; improving relationships with family, friends, and physicians; and enhancing coping skills. Such therapy approaches have been shown to reduce distress, enhance coping, and ameliorate symptoms. Sources: Encyclopedia of Psychotherapy_Michel Hersen, William Sledge

2016, M S Ahluwalia Psychology Learners Technical neutrality 38 A9 Neutrality was first formally defined by Anna Freud (1936, p. 28), who said that in doing his work the analyst "takes his stand at a point equidistant from the id, the ego, and the superego." Offering what is perhaps the most comprehensive formulation of neutrality that has appeared to date, Schafer lists six characteristics of the neutral position: 1. The analyst allows all conflictual material to be represented, interpreted and worked through. He takes no sides in the consideration of these conflicts. 2. The analyst avoids both the imposition of his own values on the patient and an unquestioning acceptance of the patient's values. 3. The analyst is unpresumptuous as to the desirability of alternative courses of action which the patient is considering. He does not unilaterally try to make anything happen and does not try to bring about a certain kind of change because he believes in it in principle. 4. The analyst is non-judgmental not only with respect to the patient, but also with respect to others in the patient's life. 5. The analyst subordinates his personality to the analytic task. 6. The analyst totally repudiates any adversarial conception of the analytic relationship. * * * Sources: http://www.wawhite.org/uploads/PDF/E1f_10%20Greenberg_J_Analytic_Neutrality.pdf

2016, M S Ahluwalia Psychology Learners Existential therapy 39 A10 Existential therapy reacts against the tendency to view therapy as a system of well-defined techniques; it affirms looking at those unique characteristics that make us human and building therapy on them. It focuses on exploring themes such as mortality, freedom, responsibility, self-determination, anxiety, and aloneness, as these relate to a person’s current struggle. Key propositions are: 1. We have the capacity for self-awareness. 2. Because we are basically free beings, we must accept the responsibility that accompanies our freedom. 3. We have a concern to preserve our uniqueness and identity; we come to know ourselves in relation to knowing and interacting with others. 4. The significance of our existence and the meaning of our life are never fixed once and for all; instead, we re- create ourselves through our projects. 5. Anxiety is part of the human condition. 6. Death is also a basic human condition, and awareness of it gives significance to living. Clients are confronted with addressing ultimate concerns rather than coping with immediate problems. They are expected to put into action in daily life what they learn about themselves in therapy. * * * Sources: Theory and Practice of Counseling and Psychotherapy By Gerald Corey (free preview)

2016, M S Ahluwalia Psychology Learners Defining features of short term therapies 40 A11 Short-term therapy, is a generic label for any form of therapy in which time is an explicit element in treatment planning. Defining features: 1. Time is a key element: Therapy is “time limited,” allocating a fixed number of sessions for clients. 2. Focus: Therapy targets specific patterns rather than attempt broader personality changes. 3. Activity level of the therapist: Therapists adopt active methods to maintain the focus of treatment and promote self-understanding and change. 4. Activity level of the client: Clients are absorbed in change efforts between sessions, as well as during them. 5. Client selection: Therapy typically begins with an assessment to determine the appropriateness of brief treatment for a particular client. 6. Enhanced experiencing: Methods, including hypnosis, relaxation techniques, introspection, confrontation, exposure, and role playing, enable individuals to experience themselves and their problems in new ways. 7. Emphasis upon readiness for change: When clients are not aware of or not committed to changes, brief therapy goals focus on advancing readiness for change 8. Emphasis on impact of intervention: Therapists emphasize promotion of corrective emotional experiences rather than exhaustive insight into past conflicts. * * * Sources: Encyclopedia of Psychotherapy_Michel Hersen, William Sledge

2016, M S Ahluwalia Psychology Learners Negative Punishment 41 A12 Negative punishment occurs when the removal or prevention of delivery of a stimulus, termed a negative punisher, weakens the behavior that produced this consequence. In contrast to positive punishment that occurs when the presentation of a stimulus, termed a positive punisher, weakens the behavior that caused this consequence to occur. As an everyday example of negative punishment, envision two friends who are sitting together having a friendly conversation when one makes a highly critical comment about a presidential candidate. The other person likes the candidate and is angered by the comment and abruptly gets up and walks away upon hearing it. If this results in fewer negative comments about the politician in the future, then negative punishment has occurred. In this hypothetical example, and in most cases, the response-weakening effect of punishment involves a decrease in the frequency of responding. * * * Sources: Encyclopedia of Psychotherapy_Michel Hersen, William Sledge

2016, M S Ahluwalia Psychology Learners Counter conditioning 42 A13 A classical conditioning procedure in which a stimulus that formerly elicited one response (e.g., pleasure) is conditioned to elicit a different response (e.g., nausea). Sometimes used in the treatment of paraphilias and substance use disorders. Basically, it involves weakening or eliminating an undesired response by introducing and strengthening a second response that is incompatible with it. The type of counter-conditioning most widely used for therapeutic purposes is systematic desensitization, to reduce or eliminate fear of a particular object, situation, or activity. An early example of systematic desensitization was an experiment in 1924, by Mary Cover Jones – the treatment of a three-year-old with a fear of rabbits. Jones countered the child's negative response to rabbits with a positive one by exposing him to a caged rabbit while he sat some distance away, eating one of his favorite foods. The boy slowly became more comfortable with the rabbit as the cage was gradually moved closer, until he was finally able to pet it and play with it without experiencing any fear. * * * Sources: Encyclopedia of Psychotherapy_Michel Hersen, William Sledge http://psychology.jrank.org/pages/152/Counterconditioning.html

2016, M S Ahluwalia Psychology Learners Self monitoring 43 A14 Self-monitoring requires clients to be mindful of the “what,” “where,” “when,” and “why” of the behavior they have targeted for change and to keep a careful and detailed record of their thoughts, feelings, actions and their environment at the moment that behavior occurred. Clients are also asked to keep track of the antecedents and consequences of their behaviors. It is useful when direct observation by another party is limited or not possible. One should keep in mind that accuracy is questionable with self-monitoring. Without contingencies in place to ensure reliability of data collection, there may be incentives for the participant to inaccurately report the presence of a specific setting event. An example here might be a participant who just experienced a toileting accident and fails to record it on her daily tracking sheet of self-initiated activities outside of the house because she is embarrassed. * * * Sources: Encyclopedia of Psychotherapy_Michel Hersen, William Sledge Theory and Practice of Counseling and Psychotherapy By Gerald Corey (free preview)

2016, M S Ahluwalia Psychology Learners Multimodal therapy 44 A15 The most influential and important integrative approach that is representative of technical eclecticism is multimodal therapy, described by Arnold Lazarus in 1992. It was derived from his experiences as a behavior therapist, and his follow-up studies of patients who relapsed after seemingly successful behavioral treatment. He found that most behavioral problems had extensive psychological and social causes and correlates. Seeking to expand the range of his ability to work in a more “broad spectrum” way, Lazarus arrived at a multimodal, or broad- based, eclectic therapy. Multimodal therapy is organized around an extensive assessment of the patient’s strengths, excesses, liabilities, and problem behaviors. Upon completion of this assessment, that patient’s clinically significant issues are organized within a framework that follows the acronym of the BASIC ID: Behavior, Affect, Sensation, Imagery, Cognition, Interpersonal relations, and Drugs (or biology). As the firing order or causal sequence of variables in the BASIC ID is identified, interventions are selected and are implemented. More microscopic BASIC ID profiles of discrete or difficult problems and of components of a firing order can be attempted once the initial, global assessment and interventions are completed. * * * Sources: Encyclopedia of Psychotherapy_Michel Hersen, William Sledge

2016, M S Ahluwalia Psychology Learners Multiple family group therapy 45 A16 Multiple Family Group Therapy (MFGT), initially developed by Dr. H. Peter Laqueur in his work with hospitalized schizophrenic patients in the 1950's, emerged as a form of intervention adjunct to the treatment of serious mental disorders with biological basis. It involves working with a collection of families in a group setting. MFGT combines the power of group process with the systems focus of family therapy and is suited to work with families facing similar problems (schizophrenia, chemical dependence, domestic violence, sexual abuse etc.) Why Do It? 1. MFGT is more powerful, supportive and empowering than single family therapy due to following curative factors: universality, hope, acceptance, imitation learning, experimentation, and increased commitment to change. 2. It offers a family more avenues for learning and growth, with less resistance, than they would get in therapy by themselves. 3. Because of the shared experiences and boosted learning, it is also easier for the therapist as much of the therapeutic work is done by group members. 4. More economical for therapist - can see more families in less time. 5. Participation in MFGT is good preparation for transition into ongoing self-help support groups like Parents Without Partners, Alcoholics Anonymous, etc. * * * Sources: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Family_therapy http://www.multiplefamilygrouptherapy.com/J%20Howe%20Model%20of%20MFGT.htm

2016, M S Ahluwalia Psychology Learners Psychotherapy integration 46 A17 Psychotherapy integration can be defined as an attempt to look beyond the confines of single-school approaches to see what can be learned from other perspectives (Stricker, 1994). It is characterized by an openness to various ways of integrating diverse theories and techniques. The term has been applied for: 1. Common factors refers to aspects of psychotherapy that are present in most, if not all, approaches to therapy (Weinberger, 1995). This collection of common and effective techniques cuts across all theoretical lines and is present in all psychotherapeutic endeavors. 2. Assimilative integration (Messer, 1992) is an approach in which a solid grounding in one theoretical approach is accompanied by a willingness to incorporate techniques from other therapeutic approaches. 3. Theoretical integration is the most difficult level at which to achieve integration, for it requires bringing together theoretical concepts from disparate approaches, some of which may differ in their fundamental worldview. theoretical integration tries to bring together those approaches themselves and to develop a "Grand Unified Theory. * * * Sources: http://www.psychiatrictimes.com/articles/introduction-psychotherapy-integration

2016, M S Ahluwalia Psychology Learners Narrative therapy 47 A18 Narrative therapy is a form of psychotherapy using narrative developed by Michael White and David Epston. It includes a discussion of how a problem has been disrupting, dominating, or discouraging the person. The therapist attempts to separate clients from their problems so that they do not adopt a fixed view of their identities. Gaps, incompleteness, and incoherence in the client’s life story may indicate struggles in creating an integrated experience of self-in the-world. Clients are invited to view their stories from different perspectives and eventually to co-create an alternative life story. Clients are asked to find evidence to support a new view of themselves as being competent enough to escape the dominance of a problem and are encouraged to consider what kind of future could be expected from the competent person that is emerging. Because people intimately create meanings to understand their experiences, the experience of reviewing the abuse with an empathic therapist allows for new constructions to be created. These newer meanings, in turn, allow for newer experiences as clients’ lives move into the future. * * * Sources: Encyclopedia of Psychotherapy_Michel Hersen, William Sledge Theory and Practice of Counseling and Psychotherapy By Gerald Corey (free preview) https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Narrative_therapy
