What happens after you build a relationship with your clients?
Many counselors do emphasize the importance of relationship building most counselors emphasis the necessity of further intervention for change to occur.
Approaches to counseling and psychotherapy traditionally have focused on the one of three intrapsychic domains: Affect, Cognition and Behavior
1. Affect- referring to feelings we experience and express2. Cognition- are the thoughts we think3. Behavior – are overt acts we do
Change and Intervention
![Page 3: A Brief Introduction To Prevention](https://reader031.vdocuments.site/reader031/viewer/2022012914/5681666a550346895dda0149/html5/thumbnails/3.jpg)
Most clients report that the reason they seek counseling is to change painful feelings such as anxiety or depression and recent research indicates that depression and anxiety show larger changes than any other domain after counseling.
Were to start is the big disagreement between counselors and psychotherapist. The three systems should be targeted but where to start can be controversial.
Permanence o change –If we change behavior without attention to underlying feelings will the problem resurface elsewhere? Desynchrony- even if a client changes their behavior , weeks may pass before the corresponding feeling change occurs.
Ready…set…go?

Research findings support the general efficacy of counseling, another words clients who receive treatment enjoy improvement than do two-thirds of persons who do not receive counseling.
Not anyone approach can be superior, and most research shows that not one method is superior.
Social learning approaches are superior to impatient clients.Cognitive and behavioral methods appear more effective with impulsive clients who are also depressed and anxious.
The text emphasize the benefit for beginning counselors to familiarize themselves with basic theory and practice of many approaches.

46. Person-Centered Counseling
Person centered, client-centered, or nondirective theory centers on the work of Carl Rogers.
Client centered counselors tend to see there clients positively and use empathy, warmth, support, unconditional positive regard and genuineness.
Counseling notice their clients feelings and empathized with those feelings to help clients fully experience their affect and become more open to their life experiences.
![Page 7: A Brief Introduction To Prevention](https://reader031.vdocuments.site/reader031/viewer/2022012914/5681666a550346895dda0149/html5/thumbnails/7.jpg)
47. Behavior Counseling
Behavioral counseling tends to be the pragmatists of the counseling profession.
They maintain that since it is the behavior that we ultimately want to change, then it is the behavior that we should target in counseling.
Whether it is to stop smoking, anxiety about school performance or depression, counselors prescribe, a regimen of relaxation and assertive training. Another example may be is a child is misbehaving a counselor may teach the parents about rewarding the more appropriate behavior.

Sigmund Freud established the foundation psychoanalytic counseling
All other psychoanalytic and psychodynamic counseling theories evolved from there.
Freud’s theories on unconscious and personality development led to the development of indigenous counseling techniques ◦ Later different counseling theories were developed ( e.g. Behavioral
counseling, rational emotive therapy) were developed as a radical departure from Psychoanalytic theory.

psychological adjustment

Psychoanalytic Counselors attempt to understand the client through client- therapist relationship
Bring transference (the projection onto the counselor of clients’ feelings toward the authority figure – e.g. parents) into open
◦ This helps the client to:
gain new understanding of their psychological processes, and ameliorate troubling symptom

Existential Counseling◦ Examine the role of abstract and philosophical
issues in the psychological lives of the individuals
◦ grapple with basic dimensions of life and death more than any other counseling approaches,
◦ People are viewed in two terms: Being (an awareness of oneself) Nonbeing (a loss of identity)
◦ Anxiety as the experience of the threat of imminent nonbeing.

According to Existential Counselors◦ Client seek counseling to expand their
psychological world◦ Knowledge and insight follow behavioral change,
not vice versa. ◦ The job of the counselor is to expose oneself to
clients By doing this clients can become aware of similar
qualities in themselves

Group counselors: ◦ Subscribe to any of the counseling approaches ◦ They ,in common, recognize the benefits of working
with more than one client at a time Counseling can be done efficiently if the members of the group
as selected based on a relatively similar problem Interaction is done between the members than with the
counselor◦ With therapeutic groups, the role of the counselor is
more a facilitator than an active participant or a leader The group counselors supply group rules and emotional
challenges They also provide high amounts of support and interpretation of
group process.

59. New and Emerging Approaches
New counseling approaches are continually being introduced yet many disappear after a few years. Listed below are a few new approaches which according to the author may stick around a little longer.
1.Acceptance and commitment therapy- http://contextualpsychology.org/
2. Schema Therapy- www.schematherapy.com
3. Emotion-focus Therapy
![Page 39: A Brief Introduction To Prevention](https://reader031.vdocuments.site/reader031/viewer/2022012914/5681666a550346895dda0149/html5/thumbnails/39.jpg)
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy
1.Acceptance and commitment therapy
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) is a unique empirically based psychological intervention that uses acceptance and mindfulness strategies, together with commitment and behavior change strategies, to increase psychological flexibility. Psychological flexibility means contacting the present moment fully as a conscious human being, and based on what the situation affords, changing or persisting in behavior in the service of chosen values.
This theory focuses on the idea that some individuals focus on having to much control of a situation which leads them to psychological problems. Example: A client is obsessing about a 70 hr. work week.
The therapist would help the client to perceive these thoughts as thoughts, accept them with out struggling, set goals in relation to what the client values in this context and act to fulfill the goals.

Schema Therapy
Schema Therapy- www.schematherapy.com
Schemas are seen as self-defeating themes that individuals continue to repeat throughout there lives.
The goals of Schema Therapy are: to help patients to stop using maladaptive coping styles and thus get back in touch with their core feelings, to heal their early schemas; to learn how to flip out of self-defeating schema modes as quickly as possible to eventually to get their emotional needs met in everyday life.

Emotion-Focus Therapy
3. Emotion-focus Therapy- “Whereas thinking usually changes thoughts, feeling uses changes emotion.” in other words people who wrote about the facts of a traumatic episode did not show improvement whereas people who wrote about emotional aspects did.

60. Research on Counseling and Psychotherapy
Research in counseling focus on process and outcome questions.BASICLLY: Is counseling effective?
Basic and previous research, most reviewers would say yes, but a clear and present factor is that counselors are asking better questions.
Research also shows that no one approach is universal, in the sense that not all clients respond uniformly to a specific approach.
Although a research-based approach is a great place to start most counselors adapt and individualize there approach understanding that with each client unique elements will arise.
