This book was released on 2013 with total page 202 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Alliance and client involvement are thought to be important therapy process factors in child psychotherapy; however, few studies have investigated them over the course of treatment. The present study examined change in alliance, client involvement, and the relationship between the two over time in an effectiveness study comparing cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) and usual clinical care (UC) for child anxiety disorders. The sample included 40 clinically-referred children (57.50%, female, mean age = 10.81, SD = 2.11, 35.00% Caucasian, 32.50% Latino/Hispanic, 5.00% African-American, 7.50% mixed ethnicity, 20.00% not reported) and 39 therapists employed by community clinics. Two doctoral-level students comprised the coding teams for each measure and independently rated alliance and client involvement in all available recorded sessions. Unconditional multilevel growth models indicated alliance and client involvement did not significantly change over time. Findings suggest that when measured by observational coders, initial levels of alliance and client involvement remain relatively stable throughout different treatments for child anxiety in community settings. Existing therapy process models may require further specification based on treatment setting and method of measurement. In practice, these findings suggest strategies to bolster initial alliance and client involvement could help improve the impact and delivery of child anxiety treatment in community settings.

Book Synopsis Therapeutic Alliance and Outcomes in Children and Adolescents Served in a Community Mental Health Setting by : Golee Farshbaf Abrishami
Download or read book Therapeutic Alliance and Outcomes in Children and Adolescents Served in a Community Mental Health Setting written by Golee Farshbaf Abrishami and published by . This book was released on 2009 with total page 79 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This study examined the association between the therapeutic alliance and psychotherapy outcomes in 350 children and adolescents receiving outpatient therapy at a community mental health clinic. Therapeutic alliance and psychosocial distress were measured at intake 3 week, 2 month, 4 month and 6 month intervals. Participants aged 12 and older completed self report versions of the outcome and alliance measures and the parents of participants aged 4-17 completed the outcome measure. Therapists completed alliance measures for each participant. Analyses examined the relation between youth-rated therapeutic alliance and psychotherapy outcomes, premature termination, problem type, age of client, and clinician-rated alliance. Results indicated that early therapeutic alliance ratings were not related to premature termination from therapy. With the exception of the 3-week time point problem type was not found to be related to the formation of the alliance. A relationship between age of the client and the formation of a therapeutic alliance was true at the 6 month time point indicating that the therapists rated their relationships with youth under 12 years old more favorably than youth over 13 years old. Finally, the therapist2s ratings of the alliance were not correlated with psychotherapy outcome. These findings indicate that associations between therapeutic alliance and psychotherapy outcomes may be less pronounced in youth treatment than in adult treatment.

Book Synopsis Influence of Parental Collaboration on Group Therapy Outcomes for Anxious Children by : Candice Watson
Download or read book Influence of Parental Collaboration on Group Therapy Outcomes for Anxious Children written by Candice Watson and published by . This book was released on 2016 with total page 91 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Providing psychotherapy to youth inherently requires some involvement from parents. Kendall (2000) identified three types of parent involvement: consultants, co-clients, and collaborators. Research examining the potential benefits of incorporating parents as co-clients and collaborators in individual and group cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) for anxious children has found mixed results, likely due to methodological issues (e.g., not specifically measuring the type nor the amount of parental collaboration over the course of treatment), as well as child/family factors. Furthermore, these studies have often ignored how parental involvement impacts the treatment of social functioning, and less is known related to the impact of parental collaboration on group treatment outcomes in clinical service settings. This study attempted to address these research limitations by examining the influence of type and amount of parental collaboration on the outcomes of a resilience-based group CBT intervention that targets social functioning known as the Resilience Builder Program℗ʼ (RBP; Alvord, Zucker, & Grados, 2011) for anxious children in a private practice setting. Participants consisted of 99 children (Mage= 9.73; 72.7% male; 82.8% Caucasian; 63.6% on medication) enrolled in RBP at a large private psychotherapy practice. Parents of boys, children with co-morbid Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD), and those who participated in RBP for the first time reported higher amounts of assistance on the success journals over the course of therapy. Greater use of therapy terms at home was related to younger child age and greater parental psychopathology. Greater amount of collaboration over the course of therapy was related to higher pre-therapy ratings of anxiety, whereas higher ratings of the combination of specific types of collaboration at post-treatment (i.e., assisting with homework and the success journal) was related to higher family income, greater number of children in the household, and better pre-therapy ratings of family communication. Similarly, higher ratings of assistance on the success journals at post-treatment were significantly related to higher family income and greater number of children in the household. Additionally, higher ratings of assistance of homework at post-treatment were significantly related to pre-therapy ratings of family communication. Results found significant improvements in children0́9s emotional, social, and behavioral functioning following treatment with RBP; however, parental collaboration was not predictive of improvements in parent reports of children0́9s emotional or social/behavioral functioning. These findings provide preliminary clarification of the nature of parental collaboration in RBP and what clinical and demographic variables are associated with differences in parental collaboration for anxious children.
Book Synopsis TIP 35: Enhancing Motivation for Change in Substance Use Disorder Treatment (Updated 2019) by : U.S. Department of Health and Human Services
Download or read book TIP 35: Enhancing Motivation for Change in Substance Use Disorder Treatment (Updated 2019) written by U.S. Department of Health and Human Services and published by Lulu.com. This book was released on 2019-11-19 with total page 208 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Motivation is key to substance use behavior change. Counselors can support clients' movement toward positive changes in their substance use by identifying and enhancing motivation that already exists. Motivational approaches are based on the principles of person-centered counseling. Counselors' use of empathy, not authority and power, is key to enhancing clients' motivation to change. Clients are experts in their own recovery from SUDs. Counselors should engage them in collaborative partnerships. Ambivalence about change is normal. Resistance to change is an expression of ambivalence about change, not a client trait or characteristic. Confrontational approaches increase client resistance and discord in the counseling relationship. Motivational approaches explore ambivalence in a nonjudgmental and compassionate way.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle.

This Classic Edition of the book includes a brand new introduction by the author. Anne Gray, an experienced psychotherapist and teacher, uses lively and extensive case material to show how the frame can both contain feelings and further understanding within the therapeutic relationship. She takes the reader through each stage of therapeutic work, from the first meeting to the final contact, and looks at those aspects of management that beginners often find difficult, such as fee payment, letters and telephone calls, supervision and evaluation. Her practical advice on how to handle these situations will be invaluable to trainees as well as to those involved in their training.

Book Synopsis The Impact of Therapeutic Alliance on the Relationship Between School Reluctance Status and Treatment Outcome for Child Anxiety Disorders by : Anna Maitland Jones
Download or read book The Impact of Therapeutic Alliance on the Relationship Between School Reluctance Status and Treatment Outcome for Child Anxiety Disorders written by Anna Maitland Jones and published by . This book was released on 2018 with total page 96 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Anxious youth who are school reluctant find school to be an aversive environment, yet do not refuse school. These children experience higher levels of loneliness, negative affectivity, and anxiety severity compared to their non-school reluctant counterparts with anxiety disorders. While factors influencing treatment outcome, such as the therapeutic alliance, have been examined extensively in children with anxiety disorders and in school refusing youth, no literature to date has examined these factors in school reluctant youth with anxiety disorders. Included in the present study were 91 youth with an anxiety disorder, of which 41 were school reluctant. This study sought to examine the impact of the therapeutic alliance on the relationship between school reluctance status and various indicators of treatment outcome. While school reluctance status was not an overall significant predictor of treatment outcome, it did significantly predict clinician-reported treatment outcome when examined in the context of middle- and late-treatment alliance. Therapeutic alliance did not significantly moderate the relationship between school reluctance status and treatment outcome as reported by child, parent, teacher, or clinician. A significant decrease was observed in the number of school reluctant youth at pre- compared to post-treatment. Results of this study suggest that cognitive behavior therapy is effective in treating child anxiety, regardless of school reluctance status.

Book Synopsis Occupational Therapy Practice Framework: Domain and Process by : Aota
Download or read book Occupational Therapy Practice Framework: Domain and Process written by Aota and published by AOTA Press. This book was released on 2014 with total page 51 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: As occupational therapy celebrates its centennial in 2017, attention returns to the profession's founding belief in the value of therapeutic occupations as a way to remediate illness and maintain health. The founders emphasized the importance of establishing a therapeutic relationship with each client and designing an intervention plan based on the knowledge about a client's context and environment, values, goals, and needs. Using today's lexicon, the profession's founders proposed a vision for the profession that was occupation based, client centered, and evidence based--the vision articulated in the third edition of the Occupational Therapy Practice Framework: Domain and Process. The Framework is a must-have official document from the American Occupational Therapy Association. Intended for occupational therapy practitioners and students, other health care professionals, educators, researchers, payers, and consumers, the Framework summarizes the interrelated constructs that describe occupational therapy practice. In addition to the creation of a new preface to set the tone for the work, this new edition includes the following highlights: a redefinition of the overarching statement describing occupational therapy's domain; a new definition of clients that includes persons, groups, and populations; further delineation of the profession's relationship to organizations; inclusion of activity demands as part of the process; and even more up-to-date analysis and guidance for today's occupational therapy practitioners. Achieving health, well-being, and participation in life through engagement in occupation is the overarching statement that describes the domain and process of occupational therapy in the fullest sense. The Framework can provide the structure and guidance that practitioners can use to meet this important goal.

Book Synopsis Psychodynamic Therapy Techniques by : Brian A. Sharpless
Download or read book Psychodynamic Therapy Techniques written by Brian A. Sharpless and published by Oxford University Press. This book was released on 2019-03-06 with total page 264 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Psychodynamic therapy is one of the most popular orientations practiced in the world today. It has a growing evidence base, is cost-effective, and may have unique mechanisms of clinical change. However, gaining competence in this approach generally requires extensive training and mastery of a large and complex literature. Integrating clinical theory and research findings, Psychodynamic Psychotherapy Techniques provides comprehensive but practical guidance on the main interventions of contemporary psychodynamic practice. Early chapters describe the psychodynamic "stance" and illustrate effective means of identifying and understanding clinical problems. Later, the book describes how to question, clarify, confront, and interpret patient material as well as assess the clinical impacts of interventions. With these foundational tools in place, the book supplements the "classic" psychodynamic therapy techniques with six sets of supportive interventions helpful for lower-functioning patients or those in acute crisis. Complete with step-by-step instructions on how to prepare techniques as well as numerous clinical vignettes to illustrate their use in clinical settings, Psychodynamic Psychotherapy Techniques effectively demystifies this important approach to therapy and helps practitioners more effectively apply them to a wide range of patients and problems.
