4) My hope for this client would be to have a more positive outlook on life and, develop rational thinking. I hope that REBT will change her definition of success and recognize that life is not about how much money you have, rather the love and support you acquire through your relationships with others. Moreover, at the end of therapy, she will have the necessary tools and techniques in order for her to apply them in other areas of her life. Furthermore, my hope for my client would be that she becomes less critical of herself and others and, appreciate simplicity. I anticipate her being able to dispute irrational beliefs as soon as they cross her mind as well as, reshape her terminology and statements from self defeating, to motivating. Most importantly, to acquire the ability to have self-acceptance and accept others for who they are, instead of how she thinks they should be. I believe these abilities are beneficial for Jasmine, if she wants to live a happier and more meaningful life. By the end of the ten sessions, I would like to see a more independent woman, who is able to apply what she learned to all areas of her life. Likewise, I Case Analysis 10 would be willing to work with Jasmine on further issues such as, her mood or personality disorder, …show more content…
Moreover, REBT is a direct form of therapy between a client and counselor where unlike traditional forms of therapy, the client takes full responsibility for progress and is directly involved in the sessions. According to Ellis (1994), REBT is a dual-purpose form of therapy, which can treat disorders such as depression and anxiety. Furthermore, REBT can be taught not only by counselors but by clients who have been able to benefit from it, due to its simplicity (Bennett, 2003). REBT is challenging yet rewarding since, it requires the use of homework to ensure the clients remain motivated and active throughout the course of
In Belinda’s case you have to look at what are her weakness and have a less focus on that. As the case manager of Belinda she seems like a person that may have a lot issue with doubting herself and may seem self-conscious. Also another strategy that we could use is the strength based approach which could very helpful so Belinda could see that there is something positive that could happen if she would follow the treatment plan. Also give her options on what agencies could help her and see what agencies could she relate more too meaning that the agency could understand her bio-social-and culture. Also another strategy that could Belinda is get her family involve meaning her boyfriend probably share the same goals as her or could achive both of their goals at a same pace.

Montresor also Lacks the evidence that supports his claims against fortunato’s “ thousands of injuries “ and “insults.” Montresor is mentally unstable because of and insult that fortunato has been saying about him .
CBT has a number of strengths; first beginning with its capacity to yield empirical results as to its effectiveness. Countless studies have shown CBT to be the most effective treatment for anxiety and depression (e.g., Oei & McAlinden, 2014; Tolin, 2010); this is likely the result of a number of factors. CBT is a collaborative, educational, time-limited model that demystifies the therapy process; changes are made with clients, not to clients, the strategies learned equip clients to better navigate current and future difficulties, and the setting of goals allows clients to clearly see their progress (Corey, 2013; Skinner & Wrycraft, 2014). An additional strength of CBT for anxiety and depression is its applicability to both individuals and groups; group CBT has a number of auxiliary benefits including, vicarious learning, a sense of cohesiveness that can increase motivation, social interaction and the opportunity to help others (Oei & McAlinden, 2014).
Client will be asked to list three goals that she would like to achieve. “Goal setting is the process of collaborative identifying specific therapeutic outcomes for treatment”. Since sessions are not long three goals is a realistic number to approach. All of the goals must be measurable, observable, and achievable. Client goals are as followed: Feeling comfortable outside of her home, participating in senior program in neighborhood, and to travel downtown into the city and experience activities that she once enjoyed. Counselor agrees that the goals client listed are achievable. Both counselor and client can now develop an
My personal theoretical orientation to counseling is Cognitive-Behavioral therapy. Cognitive-Behavioral therapy helps the client to uncover and alter distortions of thought or perceptions which may be causing or prolonging psychological distress. The theoretical foundations of CBT are essentially those of the behavioral and cognitive approaches. CBT leads to a clear, persuasive, and evidence-based description of how normal and abnormal behavior develops and changes (Kramer 293). The term “cognitive-behavioral therapy” or CBT is a term for therapies with many similarities. CBT is not used as a cure and often times used to help with anxiety or depression the most, and may be single or in group settings. There
My role as the clinician is quite important. The primary task is to engage the client in identifying cognitive errors, refuting them, and replacing them with more adaptive thoughts. A sound therapeutic relationship is necessary for effective therapy, but not the focus of the therapy. Many forms of other counseling believe that the main reason people get better in therapy is because of the positive relationship between the therapist and client. Cognitive-behavioral therapists believe it is important to have a good, trusting relationship, but I know that is not nearly enough. We believe that the clients change because they learn how to think differently and they act on that learning. Therefore, CBT tries and focuses on teaching rational self-counseling skills. CBT is the teamwork that exists between the therapist and the client. This form of therapy is used to seek ways of learning what their clients want out of life and then helping their clients achieve those goals. The therapist's role is to listen, teach, and encourage, while the client's roles is to express concerns, learn, and implement that learning (Pucci1).
At present, manual labor in the United States is not without problems by a long shot. However, manual labor no longer has many of the countless problems that burdened workers during the 1800s. The problems in industry during this period consisted of intensely long working hours without breaks, low wages, and (especially in the steel industry) immensely physically demanding conditions1. It was only a matter of time before these conditions would require a serious facelift. Progress toward more ethical labor conditions has not always been forward, but many improvements have been made to labor laws, largely thanks to the tireless efforts of labor unions. However, these improvements were not easily obtained. At the dawn July 6th, 1892, an outbreak of rebellion in Pennsylvania at one of Andrew Carnegie’s steel mills began in what is now known as the Battle of Homestead. This began when the tugboat known as Little Bill brought nearly 300 Pinkerton Detectives hired by Carnegie and his colleagues to the union workers of the Homestead Carnegie steel mill. This resulted in the workers storming the docks and attacking the incoming Pinkertons as they approached the mill2. In the case of union involvement at Homestead Steel Works of the Carnegie Steel Company, potentially more harm may have been done than good during the 1892 battle of Homestead.
One of the central assumptions of SFBT is that the client will choose the goals for therapy and that the client themselves have resources which they will use in making changes (Macdonald, 2011). The therapeutic conversation aims at restoring hope and self-esteem, while reducing anxiety to a point where people become able to think more widely and creatively about solutions. SFBT holds that high anxiety can restrict cognition and attention to the surrounding environment and that, by reducing anxiety, it would allow for wider thinking about possible approaches to problems, as well as mobilizing their existing strengths and resources to address their desired goals (Rafter et al, 2012).
According to Hayes, emphasis shifted towards exploration of one’s interpretation of the world and interpretation of emotionally relevant situations, and shapes experience. This second generation of developments included rational emotive behavior therapy (REBT) developed by Albert Ellis, and Beck and colleagues’ cognitive therapy.
Cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) is a short-term, problem-centered therapy that is used to address psychopathology within the individual (Beck, 1995). This model of therapy is used to address issues of depression, anxiety, eating disorders, relational problems, and drug abuse, and can be utilized when working with individuals, as well as within group and family modalities. The core aspects of this therapy include collaboration and participation by the client, a strong alliance between therapist and client, and an initial focus on current problems and functioning (Beck, 1995). The theory of CBT emphasizes the relationship between the individual’s thoughts feelings and behaviors, which is seen as being the underlying cause of
Reliance Baking Soda was discovered by James Stewart Augusta in 1915. He called it the “miracle compound.” It was founded to serve as a leavening agent in baked goods to let them rise properly. With the invent of self-rising flour and instant cake mixes, baking soda’s original use importance declined. With this decline, Stewart Corporation started promoting baking soda for a myriad of other uses, which include household cleaner, laundry aid, and deodorizer. Reliance baking soda holds a 70% market share. They produce three box sizes, 8oz, 1lb, and 5lbs. The 1lb box holds almost 50% of the sales volume. Reliance has excellent brand awareness and customer loyalty.
Research has shown that cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) can be as successful as medicine in treating many types of depression and other mental health disorders it can be completed in a relatively short time compared with other talking therapies and because it is highly structured, CBT can be provided in a number of different formats such as through computer programs, groups and self-help books. Some research suggests that CBT may be better than antidepressants at preventing the return of depression. It is thought to be one of the most effective treatments for anxiety and depression.

Confucius was born in an impoverished family. Throughout his childhood he was very eager to learn so his mother fostered that. He had several small positions in government in his home state, Lu. He was the first ever teacher/educationalist in the history of China. His teachings found in the Analects, discusses ethical modules family, politics, economy, and more. In his teachings he promotes humanness (ren), ritual propriety (li), and the developing of exemplary persons (Junzi). (Li pg. 87)
REBT is a form of Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) and was invented by Ellis in 1955 after he found out some pitfalls in psychoanalytic theory such as the ridiculous amount of time spent to get the clients getting their insight into their problems that has been practiced among therapist during his time. REBT theory was mainly expected to be more active-directive approach as he focused on verbalizing to his clients what he thought to be the clients’ assured insight.
