Cognitive-Behavioral Therapy
With Beth Darnall, PhD
A common misconception about pain is that it is best treated with a purely biomedical approach. In fact, the biopsychosocial model of pain treatment comprehensively addresses the psychosocial factors that are integral to the experience of pain and profoundly influence need for - and response to - medical treatments.
Despite the critical role of psychology in pain, psychologists and mental health professionals commonly receive little or no pain training. In this program, Dr. Beth Darnall works with a woman suffering from debilitating pain and posttraumatic stress disorder caused by injuries sustained in an auto collision.
During the session, Dr. Darnall uses cognitive behavioral therapy for chronic pain and teaches the patient several key pain psychology concepts as well as patient-centered and values-based chronic pain self-management techniques. The DVD also includes teaching moments that emphasize the importance of establishing the pain treatment rationale with basic pain neuroscience education that any therapist can, and should, use.

With John F. Curry, PhD
Although peer pressure, stress and self-esteem issues are not new, and have been generally accepted as normal growing pains for adolescents, an increasing issue among today's adolescents is depression.
Fortunately, adolescent depression is a treatable condition: Evidence-based approaches are available and, by sharpening the skills needed to establish an effective working alliance with adolescents and applying these approaches, clinicians can provide excellent treatment.
The cognitive-behavioral approach demonstrated in this program by Dr. John F. Curry is based in developmental psychopathology and social cognitive learning theory, and typically includes behavioral activation, problem-solving, and cognitive restructuring. In the therapy demonstration, Dr. Curry applies his approach to behavioral activation and works with an adolescent teen who is suffering from depression.

With Jonathan S. Abramowitz, PhD
Helping clients understand the cognitive and behavioral processes involved in their clinical anxiety is important for getting the most out of cognitive-behavioral therapy.
Dr. Jonathan S. Abramowitz' cognitive-behavioral psychoeducation approach provides an explanation of techniques and how they work so that the client has a sense of agency and responsibility in their progress. This educational approach focuses on helping clients understand the psychological processes that are involved in the maintenance of clinical anxiety and related problems.
In this video program, Dr. Abramowitz demonstrates this approach by helping the patient learn to think of the anxiety response as a normal and adaptive response to the perception of threat that does not have to be resisted. The demonstration applies the approach with a client who is suffering from panic and generalized anxiety.

With Pamela A. Hays, PhD
In Culturally Responsive Cognitive Behavioral Therapy Over Time, Dr. Pamela A. Hays demonstrates an approach to therapy that focuses on helping alleviate a client's presenting issues in a manner best suited to the client's cultural identity, context, and preferences.
This approach seeks ways to explain and adapt techniques so that they make sense from the client's perspective. Such adaptation validates the client's experiences, which in turn can encourage the client to consider the need for change, resulting in overall greater therapeutic effectiveness.
In this program, Dr. Hays demonstrates her approach over the course of six sessions with a middle-aged Polish-American woman experiencing anxiety and depression. Using culturally adaptive language, Dr. Hays works with the client to change unhelpful thoughts to more empowering ones, and helps her to recognize her faith as a potent resource during this process of change.

With Debbie Joffe Ellis
REBT is an effective, evidence-based theoretical approach imbued with a philosophy encouraging loving kindness and unconditional acceptance. Dr. Joffe Ellis asserts that REBT is the foundation for cognitive behavior therapy. She discusses the foundational influences and the formulation of this theory by her late husband Dr. Albert Ellis. Dr. Joffe Ellis describes REBT as the most holistic approach within the CBT umbrella. Its uniqueness comes from its emphasis on unconditional acceptance and the intense focus on eliminating unhealthy irrational beliefs and then creating healthy new rational beliefs.

With Eric A. Storch, PhD
Obsessive-compulsive disorder (OCD) is characterized by unwanted, distressing and repeated thoughts and images that lead to compulsive actions. In the past, OCD was considered a complex disorder that was challenging to diagnose and effectively treat. More recently, there has been substantial progress in terms of both treating and assessing this once illusive disorder.
Cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) with exposure and response prevention is an evidence-based approach to treating OCD that encourages the client to be gradually and systematically exposed to the distress provoking trigger without engaging in rituals. This video features a discussion and demonstration of this proven CBT technique that involves first exposing the client to fear-producing stimuli and then encouraging the client to refrain from engaging in compulsive behaviors.
In this video, Dr. Eric Storch takes an active role in encouraging and directing a female client to help prevent habitual obsessive-compulsive responses to her fear of contamination.

With Sam Song
In any counseling or psychology program, classes in theory are arguably some of the most important and relevant courses of study. Lessons in theoretical insight provide the foundation needed to understand the dynamics of human behavior and choose the therapeutic approach most appropriate to specific clients and situations.
Counseling and psychology theories are often grouped into five key approaches, known as the "Five Forces". This video collection helps effectively link theory to practice by offering demonstrations that deconstruct these key theories.
Part I provides interviews with leading scholars and experts of each counseling force. These interviews discuss each theory's past evolution, conceptualization of client problem, role for the counselor, key techniques, and future directions. Part II shows counseling sessions with the same client from an expert in each force and concludes with a debriefi?ng session.

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.

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.

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.

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.

By Arthur Freeman
In this final installment of our comprehensive Three Approaches to Personality Disorders video series, watch renowned CBT expert Art Freeman assess cognitive schemas and set concrete therapeutic goals for Alfred, a challenging client who demonstrates significant Axis II issues and suicidal inclinations after being left by his girlfriend.
Expert CBT clinician Art Freeman brings a no-nonsense yet relational style to his work with 40-year-old Alfred (played by Dutch actor Hank Grashuis), whose pain over a recent breakup reveals troubling symptoms and an underlying personality disorder. Altering his initial assessment upon inquiring into the client's dominant schemas, Freeman attends empathically to Alfred's narcissistic need to "give 100% or nothing" in his relationships while simultaneously gaining buy-in to explore ways of gaining more, not less, control over his anger, drinking, relationships, and emotions. Employing CBT interventions of supporting clients in linking thoughts, emotions, and behavior, Freeman nonetheless does so in an attuned way, even while addressing (to us in voiceover commentary) his own countertransference, and builds a trusting alliance with Alfred, who ultimately feels safe enough to commit to further therapy.
By watching this video, you will:
Understand how a CBT therapist assesses for personality disorders and obtains commitment to therapy.
Learn how CBT can be integrated with psychodynamic principles such as countertransference and the therapeutic alliance.
Identify elements of CBT style and strategy to use with your own clients.
