EP13 Workshop 18 - Cognitive Therapy for Challenging Problems - Judith S. Beck, PhD
Original Program Date :
Length: 3:04:03
Description:
This interactive workshop presents a method for identifying, conceptualizing, and solving common problems in treatment. What do you do when patients present difficulties—for example, when they don’t do homework, get angry at the therapist, are afraid to reveal, go off on tangents, arrive late to session, demand special entitlements, engage in self-harm behaviors between sessions, jump from one crisis to another? Specialized techniques, adapted from psychodynamic, supportive, Gestalt, interpersonal, and other psychotherapeutic modalities, are often needed.
Educational Objectives:
- State various strategies to improve the therapeutic relationship.
- Use a cognitive conceptualization to understand and manage resistance.
- Motivate resistant clients.
