cognitive distortions

Cognitive distortions, which were first theorized by Aaron Beck, are simply ways that the mind convinces clients of something that is not really true. These inaccurate thoughts are usually used to reinforce negative thinking or emotions—telling clients things that sound rational and accurate, but really serve only to keep them feeling bad about themselves. For instance, a client might tell himself or herself, "I always fail when I try to do something new; I therefore fail at everything I try." This is an example of "black-or-white" (or polarized) thinking. The client is only seeing things in absolutes—that if he or she fails at one thing, he or she must fail at all things. Cognitive distortions are at the core of what many social workers using cognitive behavioral techniques try to help a client learn to change. By learning to correctly identify these negative thought patterns, a client can then answer the negative thinking back, and refute it. By refuting the negative thinking over and over again, it will slowly diminish over time and be automatically replaced by more rational, balanced thinking. There are many cognitive distortions.

Family Theories

Family theory provides a theoretical and therapeutic base for dealing with family-related situations; it is also useful in understanding and managing individual problems by determining the extent to which such problems are related to family issues. A family systems approach argues that in order to understand a family system, a social worker must look at the family as a whole, rather than focusing on its members. People do not exist in a vacuum. They live, play, go to school, and work with other people. Most anthropologists agree that, next to their peculiar tendency to think and use tools, one of the distinguishing characteristics of human beings is that they are social creatures. The social group that seems to be most universal and pervasive in the way it shapes human behavior is the family. For social workers, the growing awareness of the crucial impact of families on clients has led to the development of family systems theory. Family systems theory searches for the causes of behavior, not in the individual alone, but in the interactions among the members of a group. The basic rationale is that all parts of the family are interrelated. Further, the family has properties of its own that can be known only by looking at the relationships and interactions among all

Modeling therapy is based on the idea that a person suffering from a psychological disorder can correct his/her problems by observing someone else dealing with similar issues.

In his experiments, the herpephobics stood by and observed while an actor pretending to have a fear of snakes approached a cage with a snake inside. The actor went through a series of steps, first withdrawing from the cage in fear, then using calming self-talk to gradually conquer his phobia and eventually removing the snake itself from the cage. Bandura found the therapy to be overwhelmingly effective. Many clients were able to extinguish their fears after just one round of observation, despite knowing the person they were watching was an actor.
