Psychoanalysis• Aim of treatment is to
make client aware of their unconscious & resolve unconscious childhood conflicts
![Page 8: Treatment of Disorders](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022062811/568161d0550346895dd1c4a8/html5/thumbnails/8.jpg)
Psychoanalysis• Free association– Say whatever comes to mind,
no censoring of thoughts – Overcome resistance
(blocking of anxiety-laden material)
• Transference – Patient transfers
unconscious hostilities or attraction to therapist

Psychodynamic• Causes: childhood experiences
and unconscious forces• Does not emphasize sexual
development• Aim = enhance insight by exploring
feelings & thoughts• Psychodynamic therapist interprets and
analyzes the patient• Interpersonal therapy – brief
(12-16 session) treatment, effective for depression
![Page 11: Treatment of Disorders](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022062811/568161d0550346895dd1c4a8/html5/thumbnails/11.jpg)
Client-Centered Therapy (Carl Rogers) • Causes = barriers to self-
understanding, lack of self-acceptance
• Focuses on patient’s conscious self-perceptions without judgment– Genuineness, acceptance, empathy
• Nondirective therapy Active listening– Echo, clarify, and reflect what patient has
said• Unconditional positive regard total
acceptance of client
![Page 12: Treatment of Disorders](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022062811/568161d0550346895dd1c4a8/html5/thumbnails/12.jpg)
Psychoanalysis v. Humanistic
• Humanistic therapies differ from psychoanalysts in focusing on…1) Present & future (not past)2) Conscious rather than
unconscious3) Immediate responsibility 4) Promoting growth instead of
curing illness
![Page 13: Treatment of Disorders](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022062811/568161d0550346895dd1c4a8/html5/thumbnails/13.jpg)
Behavior Therapies – Classical Conditioning
• Disorders caused by learning or observing maladaptive behaviors/responses
• Aim of treatment is to replace maladaptive behaviors/responses with desirable ones
![Page 14: Treatment of Disorders](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022062811/568161d0550346895dd1c4a8/html5/thumbnails/14.jpg)
Behavior Therapies – Classical Conditioning
• Counterconditioning– Pair feared stimulus w/good
stimulus• Exposure therapy– Learn relaxation techniques– Systematic desensitization =
hierarchy of feared stimulus• Aversive conditioning– Pair the undesirable
behavior with bad response
![Page 15: Treatment of Disorders](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022062811/568161d0550346895dd1c4a8/html5/thumbnails/15.jpg)
Behavior Therapy Systematic Desensitization

Cognitive Therapies• Cause = irrational thinking patterns
or incorrect perceptions of the world• Aim = correct habitual thinking errors• Aaron Beck’s Cognitive(-Behavioral)
Therapy Cognitive Triad
1) Negative feelings about self “I am a failure”
2) Negative feelings about world“The world is unfair”
3) Negative feelings about future“The future is hopeless, itwill never get better”

Beck’s Cognitive Therapy for Depression• Over-generalization drawing general conclusions
from a single (usually negative) event. E.g. thinking that failing to be promoted at work means a promotion will never come.
• Minimalization and Maximization Getting things out of perspective: e.g. either grossly underestimating own performance or overestimating the importance of a negative event.
• Dichotomous thinking Thinking that everything is either very good or very bad so that there are no gray areas. In reality, of course, life is one big gray area.

Cognitive-Behavioral Therapies
Albert Ellis’s Rational Emotive Behavior Therapy (REBT)
- It is not the events but our beliefs about the events that cause harmThe A-B-C modelA= Adversity (anticipating event)B = Belief about “A”C = Consequences (behavioral, emotional)

Group & Family Therapies

Evaluating Psychotherapies
To whom do people turn for help for psychological difficulties?
![Page 27: Treatment of Disorders](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022062811/568161d0550346895dd1c4a8/html5/thumbnails/27.jpg)
Is Psychotherapy Effective?• Overestimation– Clients enter in crisis (temporary)–Want to believe it was worth the effort– Placebo effect– Regression toward
the mean (the usual state is better than rock bottom)
![Page 28: Treatment of Disorders](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022062811/568161d0550346895dd1c4a8/html5/thumbnails/28.jpg)
Is Psychotherapy Effective?• Those not treated often improve, but those
undergoing therapy are more likely to improve
• No one therapy is best in all cases• Evidence-based practice – clinical decision
making that integrates best available research w/clinical expertise and patient characteristics
![Page 29: Treatment of Disorders](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022062811/568161d0550346895dd1c4a8/html5/thumbnails/29.jpg)
Three Benefits of Psychotherapies
1) Offer expectation that things can and will get better
2) Offers plausible explanation for symptoms and alternative way of thinking
3) Effective therapists are empathetic and seek to understand builds trust

Biomedical Therapies• Psychopharmacology = study of drug
effects on mind and behavior
![Page 32: Treatment of Disorders](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022062811/568161d0550346895dd1c4a8/html5/thumbnails/32.jpg)
Antipsychotic Drugs• Work by decreasing receptiveness to
irrelevant stimuli, block dopamine• Treats schizoprhenia, sometimes
bipolar• Thorazine, Haldol, neuroleptics• Atypical antipsychotics
(Clozapine)• Tardive dyskinesia – involuntary
movements of face, tongue, limbs
![Page 33: Treatment of Disorders](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022062811/568161d0550346895dd1c4a8/html5/thumbnails/33.jpg)
Antianxiety Drugs• Work by depressing CNS activity
(tranquilizers – benzodiazepines), boost GABA
• Boost GABA• Xanax, Ativan, D-cycloserine• Can lead to psychological and physiological
dependence• Treats anxiety disorders
(PTSD, OCD)
![Page 34: Treatment of Disorders](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022062811/568161d0550346895dd1c4a8/html5/thumbnails/34.jpg)
Antidepressant Drugs• Work by increasing serotonin &/or
norepinephrine• Selective Serotonin Reuptake Inhibitors (SSRIs)
– Prozac, Zoloft, Paxil– Block reabsorption of
serotonin from synapse• Treat depression, some
anxiety disorders (OCD)• Tricyclics are more
effective (serotonin & norepinephrine)
![Page 35: Treatment of Disorders](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022062811/568161d0550346895dd1c4a8/html5/thumbnails/35.jpg)
Lithium• Mood stabilizer used to treat bipolar
disorder• Lowers risk of suicide
![Page 36: Treatment of Disorders](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022062811/568161d0550346895dd1c4a8/html5/thumbnails/36.jpg)
Brain Stimulation Techniques• Electroconvulsive Therapy (ECT)– Severely depressed patients– Electric current sent through brain
to produce seizure• Repetitive transcranial magnetic
stimulation (rTMS)– Patient is awake– Painless magnetic
field through skull to brain
– Less side effects
![Page 37: Treatment of Disorders](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022062811/568161d0550346895dd1c4a8/html5/thumbnails/37.jpg)
Psychosurgery• Removes or destroys brain tissue to
change behavior• Lobotomy • ONLY USED IN
EXTREME CASES
