Treatment Interventions

In commenting to other students’ posts, consider the following:

• How will their proposals promote the group for which the boss is trying to recruit clients?
• How do their proposals compare to yours?
• Are there aspects of their style of therapy that you would like to incorporate into yours?

Student paper down below:

I have started a new job with a cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) agency that also incorporates other types of evidence-based therapies into its organization. My boss has asked me to run a weekly therapy group to assist high-risk users of crisis care. She asked me to prepare 2 paragraphs for her to use in a brochure, which will propose the style of therapy I will be using and explain evidence-based treatments. This proposal will be given to these high-risk clients in hopes that they will join the group.

• The style of therapy you intend to use

The style of therapy that I intend to use is Cognitive behavior therapy in which is a short-term, goal-oriented psychotherapy treatment that takes a hands-on, practical approach to problem-solving. Its goal is to change patterns of thinking or actions that are behind people’s difficulties, and so change the way they feel. CBT examines what goes on in the mind of the client and tries to take their negative way of thinking and help them to form positive thinking habits.

• An explanation of evidence-based treatments you intend to use

Evidence – based treatments are a holistic approach to treatment , in which employs effective treatment interventions for clients. CBT is type therapy that examines what goes on in the mind of a client. Cognitivebehavioral therapy is relatively known for treating emotional problems and boosting person happiness by modifying negative emotions, behaviors, or thoughts and turning them into positive ones. CBT focuses on solutions and encouraging patients to change negative or destructive behaviors cognitions and change them in to positive behaviors. The advantage of cognitive behavioral therapy is that it is short; it’s only five to ten months for emotional problems. Clients attend one session per week, each session lasting 50 minutes. The client and counselor will work together during this time to understand what the problem maybe and develop new solutions for those problems. CBT teaches each client a set of principles that they can use for a lifetime.
