Nartker 1 Kenna Nartker General psychology November 30, 2023 Assignment 14 psychotherapy 1.) Explain in detail how cognitive reframing can be beneficial for a client experiencing depression. It can be beneficial because if they think and acknowledge the problem then they can work to get help and do what they can do to decrease their depression with any help they can get or give to themselves. 2.) Explain in detail how a client experiencing symptoms related to schizophrenia can benefit from biomedical psychotherapy. It can be beneficial because biomedic involves getting medicated and sometimes that is the best decision. 3.) How can Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) be more effective in reducing long-term anxiety symptoms compared to biomedical psychotherapy? It can be more effective in the way because it is present based so it will help in the moment and it can be sparse and changeable for when you need it. Some mental illnesses there are not medication for it so that is when CBT would be the best choice. 4.) Summarize the three essential points outlined in the NOBA Reading Introduction to Community Psychology. The first point that is outlined is prevention. That being said it is important in your mental health growth to work on preventing it rather than just continuously treating the issue. There are two specific ways that you can do so which is
Nartker 2 first order and second order change. First order change is when the minor changes you make end in short term improvement. Second order change is when you make big changes that lead to long term solutions and it stays that way. The second point that is shown is social justice orientation which is due to our social problems being made worse when our resources are decreasing and becoming less available or useful. The third point that was listed was the ecological model which is the theory or fact that there can be many levels that are analyzed in order to explain the mental side that is happening in someone’s mind. 5.) Imagine that you are a professional working in a physician’s office. Explain how you could help a client stop or reduce their smoking habits using what you have learned from CBT. I would ask him when and why he started smoking in the first place so I could analyze his answer and start to ponder my next words. A lot of people smoke due to stress or because it gives them a good feeling. If it was due to stress I would help to find the stress causers and help develop a plan to get those out of his life.
