expect to see social networking continue to impact romantic relationships in a negative way and cause instability in relationships by simply leaving behind an unsteady foundation for those relationships. According to Carlson, Fripp, Cook, & Kelchner (2015) use of technology by young adults itself does not directly increase domestic violence. They did, however, find that because using technology to communicate is almost an expectation for couples that when one partner chooses not to use it in the same way as the other partner, it may lead to an increase in frustration in the relationship. They also note that a partners’ perception that the other was using technology as a means of arguing and monitoring them was associated with a high risk of …show more content…
They state that behavior modification therapy is used most often to treat those suffering from internet addiction with a goal of simply reduce the amount of time they are on the internet. Carlisle, et al. (2016) also noted that cognitive behavior therapy combined with group or family therapy was found to be the most effective therapy for treating clients with internet addiction in a prior study. They also noted that depending on the severity of the addiction, the Therapist may decide the interventions would be better administered in either an outpatient or inpatient …show more content…
According to Landau, Garrett, & Webb, (2008), the ARISE Model is divided into two different phases. The first phase focuses on bringing the addicted individual into therapy/treatment. This process requires family members affected by the individual’s addiction to act as an intervention support system to get this individual into treatment. Their second phase starts once the individual is in treatment. In this phase, the family is to support continued treatment and help prevent relapse. They become a support team that meets regularly with the treatment team for about the first six months of treatment and works to help the individual with the addiction to hopefully stay the course and not leave treatment against the advice of the treating medical physician. The ARISE model focuses on educating the family members on why the addiction is taking place. Landau, Garrett, & Webb, (2008) note that by taking time to integrate the family in this process, it reduces their feelings of embarrassment and their ideas that shame goes along with this addiction while helping them to see that
Psychotherapy integration is best explained as an attempt to look beyond and across the dimensions of a single therapy approach, to examine what one can learn from other perspectives, and how one’s client’s can benefit from various ways of administering therapy (Corey, 2013). Research has shown that a variety of treatments are equally effective when administered by therapist who believe in them and client’s that accept them (Corey, 2013). Therefore, one of the best aspects of utilizing an integrative approach is that, in most cases, if a therapist understands how and when to incorporate therapeutic interventions, they usually can’t go wrong. While integrating different approaches can be beneficial for the client, it is also important for the

Cognitive Processing Therapy (CPT), a variant of Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), is a treatment specifically designed to address posttraumatic stress disorder (PTSD) (Shou et al. 2017). In this group format, CPT will be used to treat individuals who have experienced PTSD, resulting from police brutality. CPT is typically run in a group setting; this form of treatment can be utilized in individual treatment as well (Monson et al. 2013). CPT captures information utilizing; exercise techniques in order for individuals with PTSD to express their internal emotions regarding their traumatic life event that is stored within the brain. Through this technique, clients can associate intrusive or distressing thoughts, nightmares, and flashbacks to
Cognitive behavioral therapy commonly known as CBT is a systematic process by which we learn to change our negative thoughts into more positive ones. CBT is a combination of two types of therapy, Cognitive Therapy and Behavioral Therapy. Cognition is our thoughts, so cognitive behavioral therapy combines working with our thought process and changing our behavior at the same time. Cognitive behavioral therapists believe that our behavior and our feelings are influenced by the way we think; also our mood is affected by our behavior and thought process. So CBT tries to tackle our thoughts, feelings and behavior. Scientific research has shown that cognitive behavioral therapy is affective for a wide range of mental health problems. The purpose is to bring positive change by alleviating emotional distress such as depression. CBT starts by breaking down your problems into smaller components, often trying to identify particular problematic thoughts or behavior. Once these problems are broken down it is then suggested a straightforward plan in which the patient and therapist can intervene to promote recovery.
The Clinical Application of Cognitive-Behavioral Therapy. Cognitive-behavioral therapy (CBT) is based on the concept that behavior change may be achieved through altering cognitive processes. The assumption underlying the cognitively based therapeutic techniques is that maladaptive cognitive processes lead to maladaptive behaviors and changing these processes can lead to behavior modification. According to Mahoney (1995), an individual's cognitions are viewed as covert behaviors, subject to the same laws of learning as overt behaviors. Since its inception, cognitive-behavior modification has attempted to integrate the clinical concerns of psychodynamic psychotherapists with the technology of behavior therapists (Mahoney, 1995).
Cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) is among the most extensively tested psychotherapies for depression. Many studies have confirmed the efficacy of cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) as a treatment for depression. This paper will provide background information about the intervention, address the target population, and describe program structure and key components. It will also provide examples of program implementation, challenges/barriers to implementing the practice, address how the practice supports recovery from a serious mental illness standpoint and provide a summary. Although there are several types of therapy available to treat depression and other mood disorders, CBT (cognitive behavioral therapy) has been one of the most widely used. It is thought to be very effective in treating depression in adolescents and adults. CBT is targeted to quickly resolve maladaptive thoughts and behaviors without inquiring greatly into why those thoughts and behaviors occur as opposed to other forms of psychotherapy.
Cognitive behavior therapy has been proven to work in many different areas and presenting problems. One area that was not mention above that would significantly improve the outcome of any given therapy is the willingness of the client to accept treatment. The goal of cognitive behavior therapy is to focus on the present and to help the client identify their own strengths, learn new tools or techniques that they can use on their everyday life, and to be able to identify the different thought, emotional, and behavioral patterns that lead to undesirable
The U.S. Department of Veterans Affairs talks about several different treatments, and how they work in this article. Two of the major treatments that the US Department of Veterans Affair speaks about are cognitive processing therapy, and prolonged exposure therapy. With cognitive processing therapy, therapists teach you how to find your triggers, stressors, and feelings for Post-traumatic Stress Disorder and control them. Cognitive processing therapy teaches the trauma victim how to destress and cope with the world around them, and how to not place the blame on themselves which can cause bad episodes, and flashbacks. Prolonged exposure therapy is where therapist have you bring up traumatic memories from the past. The therapist can have you
Cognitive behavioral therapy is used to treat diverse types of disorders such as anxiety, depression, insomnia, eating disorders, etc. Cognitive behavioral therapy helps patients deal with a specific problem in the present as well as avoid the same problem in the future. A patient anc potentially learn how to identify destructive behavior within themselves, so that they can move forward positively in the future. Long term, a patient will learn how to change the thought patterns that lead to the destructive behavior with the help of cognitive behavioral
This research is unique because it will give light to the individuals who are against social networking that will not take to consideration that it has any positive outcomes at all and to those who believe that social networking has no downfalls and are too blinded by the social networking to even notice the affects it has on their own lives.
Social networking can connect strangers across the world. As the evolution of communication continues, technology progresses and social networking grows. Social networks like Instagram, Twitter, and Facebook have grown to have billions of users. In fact in today’s society, it is necessary or nearly expected to use one if not all of these technological communication networks. The increasing use of social networking has had both a negative and positive effect on communication in relationships. The purpose of this literary analysis is to answer if social networks are helpful or harmful to relationships.
Technology in itself is not damaging to us. In fact, many forms of technology help us in our everyday lives. Even so, practically every problem that stems from technology can also be related to overuse of electronics. For example, looking around at a restaurant, a person might find almost every young or old patron on their cell phone.This takes away from dinner conversation and can be frustrating to try to talk to someone who is playing on their cell phone. Being on your phone all the time can also cause romantic relationships to fall apart in certain cases. Another way it is harmful to social interactions is through social networking sites. While social networking has the ability to reconnect old friends, see what family and friends are up to, and stay informed, it also has a dark side. Problems with romantic or even platonic relationships can arise from something as small as who your friends are on Facebook or whom you follow on Twitter. A more likely situation is that romantic relationships could face turmoil if one person finds out that the other has been talking to someone else privately. Under certain circumstances, one partner could think that the other is cheating on them.
“According to Cornell University's Steven Strogatz, social media sites can make it more difficult for us to distinguish between the meaningful relationships we foster in the real world, and the numerous casual relationships formed through social media” (Jung, 2016). It is not a shocking fact when you notice that it requires much less energy to just sit around and text. It sounds innocent at first but when you realize that people are now spending hours and hours on their screens some concern
She states in her article “after people went online for the first time, their sense of happiness and social connectedness dropped over one to two years as a functions of how often they used the internet” (Konnikova 1) to explain that going onto social media just once can have a lasting negative effect on our mood. In todays society an individual feels pressure by their friends to have social media accounts. However having these accounts can have a negative affect on our moods which can have a lasting effect on our relationships. Konnikova explains in her article that social media makes us become more disconnected from others. This can have a negative effect on our relationships because when we become disconnected from a person who is important to us we may feel that we are drifting away from people that we were once closer to. Social media can have a negative affect on our relationships whether it is online or in person because a person is spending more time on the accounts and not interacting with the person that they are in a relationship
Do social media cause the breakdown of human relationship? Or how is a social media affecting human relationship? That question may seem to be uneasy to answer. Human relationships are interactions between colleagues, friends or family just basically how human interact with one another on a daily basis. In this culture as we live in America we certainly cannot leave the house without a gadget such as a cellphone. We as human have become evolve around technology nowadays that we often check our phones while we eat or while we are about to head to sleep, no doubt about it.
