@bradleythesocialworker: A CBT session can look very different than traditional psychoanalysis. Short term vs long term, goal directed vs open ended, agenda setting vs free association. Whether you are a therapy consumer or looking to become a therapist, it’s important to know these different approaches when seeking services or training. Which approach do you prefer? #psychoanalysis #psychotherapy #cbt #cognitivebehavioraltherapy #mswstudent

A couple of thoughts. I thought you did a nice job describing this. And I would note that there are more than one expressions of CBT. You seem to be describing somebody original work by Erin Beck. Therapy has not set still in 40+ years and there have been innovations. One that I think a lot of people really embrace his when motivational interviewing in CBT or integrated. text that I was aware of published by Wiley integrated motivational interviewing in cognitive behavioral therapy. The CBT that they’re describing yes, his skills focus and also introduces newer conceptualizations like functional contextualism and introduces mindfulness and some of the third wave focus on values alignment. And if you look at their people like acceptance, commitment therapy, which does give an odd to it origins. It is very different from old-school CBT. But thank you. The final thing in this rambling post while drinking coffee. Kathleen Carroll psychologist and scholar at Yale sadly passed away a few years ago. One of her most interesting pieces of work was when she into a team looked at all of the therapies and what the found and described was it all evidence based therapies, including psycho analysis have a common structure it commonly became described as the law of thirds.
