Therapies
Psychotherapy involves an emotionally charged, confiding interaction between a trained
therapist and a mental patient.
Biomedical therapy uses drugs or other procedures that act on the patient’s nervous
system curing him of psychological disorders.
An eclectic approach uses various forms of healing techniques depending on the client’s
unique problems.

Psychoanalysis
The first formal psychotherapy to emerge was psychoanalysis developed by Sigmund Freud.
Sigmund Freud's famous couch
Edmund Engleman
![Page 9: * The Psychological Therapies Rg13a. * History of Insane Treatment Maltreatment of the insane throughout the ages was based on irrational views. Many](https://reader034.vdocuments.mx/reader034/viewer/2022051113/56649d8c5503460f94a74610/html5/thumbnails/9.jpg)
*
Psychoanalysis: Aims
Since psychological problems originate from repressed impulses and conflicts in childhood, the aim of psychoanalysis is to bring repressed feelings into conscious awareness where the
patient can deal with them.
When energy devoted to id-ego-superego conflict is released, the patient’s anxiety
lessens.
![Page 10: * The Psychological Therapies Rg13a. * History of Insane Treatment Maltreatment of the insane throughout the ages was based on irrational views. Many](https://reader034.vdocuments.mx/reader034/viewer/2022051113/56649d8c5503460f94a74610/html5/thumbnails/10.jpg)
*
Psychoanalysis: Methods
Dissatisfied with hypnosis, Freud developed the method of free association to unravel the
unconscious mind and its conflicts.
The patient lies on a couch and speaks whatever comes to his mind.

*
Psychoanalysis: Methods
During free association, the patient edits his thoughts to resist his feelings and to express his emotions. Such resistance becomes important
in the analysis of conflict-driven anxiety.
Eventually the patient opens up and reveals his innermost private thoughts to the therapist,
developing positive or negative feelings (transference) towards him.

*
Psychoanalysis: Criticisms
1.Psychoanalysis is hard to refute because it cannot be proven or disproven.
2.Psychoanalysis takes a long time and is very expensive.

phobias.
![Page 29: * The Psychological Therapies Rg13a. * History of Insane Treatment Maltreatment of the insane throughout the ages was based on irrational views. Many](https://reader034.vdocuments.mx/reader034/viewer/2022051113/56649d8c5503460f94a74610/html5/thumbnails/29.jpg)

Operant Conditioning
Operant conditioning procedures enable therapists to use behavior modification in which
desired behavior is rewarded and undesired behaviors are not or are punished.
A number of withdrawn, uncommunicative 3-year-old autistic children have been
successfully trained by giving and withdrawing reinforcements for desired and undesired
behaviors.

*
Token Economy
In institutional settings therapists may create a token economy, where a patient exchanges a token of some sort, earned for exhibiting the
desired behavior, for various privileges or treats.

Cognitive Therapy
Teaches people adaptive ways of thinking and acting based on the assumption that thoughts intervene between events and our emotional
reactions.
![Page 33: * The Psychological Therapies Rg13a. * History of Insane Treatment Maltreatment of the insane throughout the ages was based on irrational views. Many](https://reader034.vdocuments.mx/reader034/viewer/2022051113/56649d8c5503460f94a74610/html5/thumbnails/33.jpg)

Cognitive Therapy for Depression
Aaron Beck (1979) suggests that depressed patients believe that they can never be happy
(thinking) and thus associate minor failings (e.g. failing a test [event]) in life as major causes for
their depression.
Beck believes that cognitions such as “can never be happy,” need to change in order for depressed
patients to recover. This change is brought into patients by gentle questioning.
![Page 35: * The Psychological Therapies Rg13a. * History of Insane Treatment Maltreatment of the insane throughout the ages was based on irrational views. Many](https://reader034.vdocuments.mx/reader034/viewer/2022051113/56649d8c5503460f94a74610/html5/thumbnails/35.jpg)

Cognitive Therapy for Depression
Rabin et al., (1986) trained depressed
patients to daily record positive events and relate how they contributed to these events. Compared
to other depressed patients, trained patients showed lower depression
scores.

*
Stress Inoculation Training
Meichenbaum (1977, 1985) trained people to restructure their thinking in stressful situations.
“Relax, the exam may be hard, but it will be hard for everyone else too. I studied harder than most people. Besides, I don’t need a
perfect score to get a good grade.”

Cognitive-Behavior Therapy
Cognitive therapists often combine the reversal of self-defeating thinking with efforts to modify
behavior.
Cognitive-behavior therapy aims to alter the way people act (behavior therapy) and alter the
way they think (cognitive therapy).
