CULTURALLY RESPONSIVE COGNITIVE-BEHAVIORAL THERAPY IN PRACTICE

With Pamela A. Hays, PhD

In Culturally Responsive Cognitive-Behavioral Therapy in Practice, Pamela A. Hays demonstrates her change-oriented approach to psychotherapy, adapting mainstream cognitive-behavior therapy (CBT) to fit the client's cultural identity, context, and preferences.

Key aspects of culturally responsive CBT include acceptance of core cultural beliefs, an emphasis on culturally related strengths and supports, and validation of the client's experiences of oppression with consideration of the need for environmental change. The culturally responsive thought-change process involves reconsideration of the helpfulness of thoughts rather than their rationality or validity. Culturally congruent homework is developed in close collaboration with the client.

Using everyday, culturally relevant language to describe and explain CBT, Dr. Hays works with a young African American Christian woman to recognize the client's culture as a potent source of strength and motivation.

COGNITIVE-BEHAVIORAL THERAPY FOR SPECIFIC PHOBIAS

With Michael A. Tompkins, PhD

Exposure-based cognitive-behavioral therapy is the treatment of choice for specific phobias. A phobia, or an extreme fear of a specific situation or object that results in severe distress or highly avoidant behavior around those objects or situations, can interfere with day-to-day functioning. Using cognitive restructuring strategies with graduated exposure to the feared object, the therapist helps the client to correct anxiety-evoking misappraisals and to replace them with more realistic interpretations and predictions.

In this video, Dr. Tompkins works with a man with a cat phobia. The client's cat phobia has evolved over time, and he has experienced interference in his personal and professional life. Dr. Tompkins supplements exposure-based strategies with cognitive restructuring to help the client to clarify and change his phobic predictions and decrease his avoidant behavior.

COGNITIVE-BEHAVIORAL FAMILY THERAPY

With Frank M. Dattilio, PhD, ABPP

When applied to families, the cognitive-behavioral therapeutic approach examines the interactional dynamics of family members and how they contribute to family functioning and dysfunction. In Cognitive-Behavioral Family Therapy, Dr. Frank M. Dattilio demonstrates a single-session intervention with a single mother and her three sons, identifying some of the automatic thoughts and schemas that exist among these family members.

This DVD depicts the manner in which a cognitive-behavioral approach can be addressed within a family structure, with the therapist engaging the family and highlighting issues that involve emotions, beliefs, and behavioral exchange.

COGNITIVE-BEHAVIORAL THERAPY FOR CLIENTS WITH ANXIETY AND PANIC

With Bunmi O. Olatunji, PhD

In Cognitive-Behavioral Therapy for Clients With Anxiety and Panic, Bunmi O. Olatunji demonstrates this effective and versatile approach to helping clients meaningfully change detrimental patterns in their thoughts and actions.

Cognitive-behavioral therapy views anxiety as the result of maladaptive habits of thinking and behavior, usually including the tendency to overestimate the possibility of something negative occurring and to avoid that which produces anxiety. Studies have found that avoidance temporarily eases fear, but tends also to reinforce it so that it continues over time. To counter this, the therapist often will teach new ways of thinking and gradually expose the client to that which causes anxiety.

In this session, Olatunji works with a young woman who is suffering from panic attacks. First he provides some psychoeducation about the purpose of fear and anxiety, and then helps her to see the irrational aspects of the rationalizations she makes for feeling the way she does.

COGNITIVE-BEHAVIORAL THERAPY FOR CLIENTS WITH MULTIPLE PROBLEMS

With Gayle Y. Iwamasa, PhD

In Cognitive-Behavioral Therapy for Clients With Multiple Problems, Gayle Y. Iwamasa demonstrates this widely practiced, empirically supported approach.

Cognitive-behavioral therapy (CBT) considers thought, emotion, and behavior to be interrelated, and seeks to help clients monitor their cognition and actions so as to help improve their emotional health and life satisfaction. Unlike traditional psychotherapies, CBT is usually time-limited, and it focuses on development of a collaborative relationship between therapist and client to determine realistic goals for therapy and effective strategies for reaching those goals.

In this DVD, Dr. Iwamasa works with a young woman who is suffering from grief, anxiety, and depression, helping her to focus her energy on the most central issue in her life and develop ways to help change her thoughts, feelings, and behavior so that she feels more positive.

COGNITIVE-BEHAVIORAL THERAPY STRATEGIES

With Keith S. Dobson, PhD

Cognitive-behavioral therapy (CBT), a system of treatment involving a focus on thinking and its influence on both behavior and feelings, is one of the dominant approaches to psychotherapy. CBT is based on a model of psychopathology that emphasizes the role of dysfunctional beliefs and situational cognitions and their influence on emotional and behavioral outcomes, which in turn reinforce negative beliefs and thought patterns.

Cognitive-Behavioral Therapy Strategies illustrates multiple aspects of the CBT system of psychotherapy, including the setting conditions (e.g., the therapy relationship), parameters around the techniques, and the techniques themselves.

Using selected vignettes from actual therapy sessions, Keith S. Dobson explores the key techniques used in cognitive-behavioral therapy, including developing a therapeutic alliance, case conceptualization, psychoeducation, assigning homework, and assessing automatic thoughts.

DEPRESSION: A COGNITIVE THERAPY APPROACH

With Arthur Freeman, EdD

Cognitive Therapy comes to life in this reenactment of a 20-session course of therapy. Arthur Freeman illustrates the foundations and key techniques of cognitive therapy in a way that's enriching and easy to follow.

Edward Crane blames his depression on his wife, who he says abandoned him by going back to school. "I shouldn't feel this way!" he exclaims to Freeman in moments of frustration. Freeman begins by helping Edward focus on short-term, workable goals instead of outward blame. Through the 20-session course of therapy, Edward learns to distinguish between situations, thoughts, and feelings, and to reframe his belief of "I need to be taken care of," to instead "I get angry when I feel incompetent." Freeman works with Edward to develop ways to feel independent and self-sufficient so that he can begin to enjoy time by himself and not feel so angry and abandoned when his family is not around.

By watching this program, you'll be able to:

  • Develop a therapeutic contract with a client that includes short-term specific, workable goals.
  • Teach clients how to distinguish between situations, thoughts and feelings, in order to break problems down into workable parts.
  • Utilize cognitive therapy fundamentals including information-gathering, confrontation, reframing and clarification in your own work with clients.

    COGNITIVE-BEHAVIORAL THERAPY FOR PERFECTIONISM OVER TIME

    With Martin M. Antony, PhD, ABPP

    In Cognitive-Behavioral Therapy for Perfectionism Over Time, Dr. Martin M. Antony demonstrates his approach to working with clients wrestling with issues surrounding maladaptive perfectionism. Perfectionism can be defined as a tendency to set standards that are unreasonably high, and to measure an individual's worth in terms of their ability to meet these standards. Typically, these perfectionistic standards are applied to oneself. Perfectionism is sometimes associated with anxiety or related disorders, and therefore resolving a client's anxiety may result in a decrease in more debilitating manifestations of perfectionism.

    In this series of six sessions, Dr. Antony works with a young woman who is completing a graduate degree in psychology. She strives for perfection in many areas, including her school work and her family life. She is overly concerned with organizing, planning, and succeeding at everything she does, and also has occasional panic attacks and issues concerning her body image. In these sessions, Dr. Antony helps her to challenge thoughts about not meeting her goals and to learn to deal with the resulting stress rather than giving in to her drive to be perfect.

    ENHANCED COGNITIVE-BEHAVIORAL COUPLE THERAPY

    With Donald H. Baucom, PhD

    In Enhanced Cognitive-Behavioral Couple Therapy, Dr. Donald H. Baucom demonstrates this approach to working with couples coping with relationship difficulties. Although regular cognitive-behavioral therapy has been useful in working with couples, it has largely neglected the broader patterns and core themes in intimate relationships, such as differences in needs for intimacy. In addition to focusing on a couple's interactive processes, enhanced cognitive-behavioral therapy attends to the two unique individuals, including all that each partner brings to the relationship, as well as to the context in which the relationship exists.

    In this session, Dr. Baucom works with a couple who have a history of resistance to vulnerability, helping them to learn to open up and truly listen to each other.

    COGNITIVE-BEHAVIORAL THERAPY

    With Donald Meichenbaum, PhD

    Cognitive-Behavioral Therapy With Donald Meichenbaum is a demonstration of arguably the most frequently used therapeutic approach by one of its cofounders. Dr. Donald Meichenbaum uses cognitive-behavioral therapy with a constructive-narrative perspective in which he looks at the stories clients tell about themselves and considers ways that the client could develop a different, more positive story.

    In this session, Dr. Meichenbaum works with a young woman who is depressed and anxious and has suicidal tendencies. She has undergone multiples traumas in her life, including rape and several suicides in her immediate family. Dr. Meichenbaum accentuates the client's strengths, skills, and support system. Then he gently confronts the client by helping her to see that, although one of her strengths is her willingness to forgive others, she has not been able to forgive herself for things she has done.

    COGNITIVE-BEHAVIORAL COUPLES THERAPY

    With Arthur Freeman, EdD

    In Cognitive-Behavioral Couples Therapy, Dr. Arthur Freeman demonstrates his approach to working with couples. This is a present-focused therapy that first looks at a couple's past experiences for ways to improve their interpersonal exchanges. Dr. Freeman works from a perspective that motivates a couple to stay together and helps them to focus on this and break away from past patterns of thought and behavior.

    In this session, Dr. Freeman works with Kim and Si, a couple having communication difficulties. In addition, because of busy work schedules, the demands of caring for a family of six, and past patterns of interaction, they find it hard to make time to spend together.

    COGNITIVE THERAPY FOR PANIC DISORDER

    With David M. Clark, Dphil

    In Cognitive Therapy for Panic Disorder, Dr. David M. Clark demonstrates a brief therapy for alleviating this debilitating anxiety disorder. Dr. Clark's approach is based on the idea that panic attacks are frequently the result of misinterpreting normal bodily sensations as a sign of an impending physical or mental catastrophe (such as a heart attack or going mad). The misinterpretation generates a feedback effect in which anxiety, physical symptoms, and negative thoughts reinforce each other. Several cognitive-behavioral techniques can help clients challenge their misinterpretations of bodily sensations. In this session, Dr. Clark works with a 38-year-old man who has experienced repeated panic attacks surrounding recurring sensations that he interprets as a heart attack.

    In Mindfulness-Based Cognitive Therapy for Depression, Dr. Zindel V. Segal demonstrates a mind-body approach to helping clients who have experienced depression to prevent a relapse into depressive symptoms. Depression poses an ongoing challenge to staying well because certain thought patterns, usually involving rumination or self-criticism, often lead back to depression. By teaching clients mindfulness exercises, Dr. Segal helps them to recognize these thought patterns and, by being aware of them, to find healthy ways to work with and adapt to them.

    In this group session, Dr. Segal talks with four clients who have experienced depression. He then leads them through a series of mindfulness exercises, followed by a discussion explaining the benefits of mindfulness practices as a way to avoid relapsing into depression.

    COGNITIVE THERAPY FOR WEIGHT LOSS: A COACHING SESSION

    With Judith Beck, PhD

    Clients with weight issues frequently become caught in a vicious cycle of losing weight and gaining it back, impairing their ability to enjoy their lives fully. At the same time, many therapists struggle with how to be helpful to these clients. In this video of an actual session, Dr. Judith Beck works with Anne to develop practical skills that will enable her to lose weight and make enduring changes to her lifestyle.

    Anne has struggled all her life with food and weight issues and has dieted dozens of times, only to gain the weight back. In this very human, and touching session, Beck emphasizes the development of a new set of skills as the crucial element of weight loss. Beck takes an extensive dieting historyˇXincluding Anne's assessment of "good eating days" and "bad eating days," she identifies Anne's motivations for losing weight and teaches self-motivation techniques, and she prepares Ann to recover quickly from the inevitable mistakes she will make. Other techniques she uses include identifying the obstacles that may prevent Anne from making these changes, strategizing solutions, exploring Anne's eating triggers and working with Anne's "all-or-nothing" approach to dieting.

    While Beck bases her approach on the core principles of Cognitive Therapy, the tools and techniques demonstrated in this video can be integrated with many types of therapeutic styles and will be useful to any therapist working with clients with weight issues.

    By watching this program, you will:

  • Learn Beck's approach to weight loss and maintenance, including the specific techniques used to help people lose weight and keep it off.
  • Be able to identify common pitfalls dieters face and Beck's recommendations for preventing these pitfalls.
  • Learn how to structure an initial session with a client who wants to lose weight
