Behavioral therapy suggests that since old learning led to the development of a problem, then new learning can fix it. Treatments that incorporate behavioral techniques are usually focused on producing results in a relatively short period of time.

Behavior therapy is a therapeutic approach that focuses on modifying maladaptive behaviors through various techniques, aiming to reinforce positive behaviors and eliminate unwanted ones. Behavioral therapy is a term that describes a broad range of techniques used to change maladaptive behaviors. The goal is to reinforce desirable behaviors and eliminate unwanted ones.

Rooted in the principles of behaviorism, a school of thought focused on the idea that we learn from our environment, this approach emerged during the early part of the 20th-century and became a dominant force in the field for many years. Unlike the types of therapy that are rooted in insight (such as psychoanalytic therapy and humanistic therapies), behavioral therapy is action-based. Because of this, behavioral therapy tends to be highly focused. The behavior itself is the problem, and the goal is to teach people new behaviors to minimize or eliminate the issue.

How well behavioral therapy works depends on factors such as the specific type of treatment used as well as the condition that is being treated. Overall, research has found that approximately 67% of people who try psychotherapy experience some type of positive improvement.

How to Get Started

If you are interested in behavioral therapy, there are some things that you can do to get the most out of your treatment.

  • Find a behavioral therapist. Some mental health professionals who can provide behavioral therapy include counselors, psychologists, psychiatrists, and social workers.
  • Ask for recommendations. If you aren’t sure where to begin your search, it can be helpful to ask your primary care physician for a referral.
  • Contact your health insurance. Find out if your plan covers behavioral therapy and, if so, how many sessions.
  • Set goals. Once you begin treatment, discuss your goals. Knowing what you hope to accomplish can help you and your therapist create an effective treatment plan.
  • Be an active participant. In order for behavioral therapy to be effective, you need to be committed to participating in the process.16

Gestalt Therapy!

Hello to, All My Dear Readers, Followers and My Blogging Friends ❤

Hope All of You are keeping in Good Health as much as possible. And “Keeping yourself Positive and Motivated as Best as possible. I have been writing about Various ways of Therapies to Become Well” And today I am writing about The Gestalt Therapy! writing with more Positive feelings at this time of my Life with Healing Energies I am receiving  writing with more Positive feelings at this time of my Life with Healing Energies I am receiving 🙂

Gestalt therapy, developed by Fritz Perls in the 1940s, emphasizes personal responsibility and focuses on the present moment, helping individuals gain awareness of their experiences and interactions.

Phenomenological Method (the “how”)

Phenomenology in Gestalt therapy is not just a theory—it’s a way of being with the client. It means setting aside assumptions, deeply observing what is happening in the present moment, and exploring the client’s experience without trying to interpret or fix it. This approach invites clients to become curious observers of their own inner world.

Gestalt therapy is a form of psychotherapy that emphasizes personal responsibility and focuses on the individual’s experience in the present moment, the therapist–client relationship, the environmental and social contexts of a person’s life, and the self-regulating adjustments people make as a result of their overall situation. It was developed by Fritz Perls, Laura Perls and Paul Goodman in the 1940s and 1950s, and was first described in the 1951 book Gestalt Therapy.

Historical Context

Gestalt therapy emerged in the mid-20th century as a reaction against traditional psychoanalysis. Fritz Perls, along with his wife Laura Perls and Paul Goodman, sought to create a more humanistic approach to psychotherapy that emphasized the whole person rather than dissecting their experiences into parts. Influenced by existentialism, phenomenology, and Gestalt psychology, this therapy focuses on how individuals perceive and make sense of their experiences in the present. 

Self-Awareness

Fritz Perls believed many psychological symptoms arise from a lack of awareness—of bodily sensations, emotions, and environmental cues. Gestalt therapy helps clients tune into their present experience through exercises that deepen awareness of how their choices impact health and relationships. By recognizing the connection between emotional and physical states, clients build self-trust, confidence, and the ability to face life’s challenges more fully.

Gestalt therapy is a humanistic and person-centered form of psychotherapy that focuses on a person’s present life and current challenges rather than on past experiences that many other therapies delve into.

Gestalt therapy emphasizes personal responsibility and focuses on the individual’s experience in the present moment, the therapist-client relationship, and the environmental and social contexts of a person’s life. It prioritizes holistic understanding and integration of thoughts, feelings, and actions.

There is an emphasis on perception in this therapy, specifically aiming to increase a person’s awareness of themselves at the moment, and through this awareness, personal growth becomes possible.

Here and Now

Rather than analyzing the past or future, Gestalt therapy centers on what the client is experiencing in the present. This doesn’t deny the past but invites clients to explore memories and emotions as they arise in the moment—especially unfinished conflicts or “incomplete Gestalts.” Working in the present tense allows clients to access insight and resolution where it’s most available: the here and now.

What does Gestalt mean?

The word ‘Gestalt’ does not have a direct translation to English, but it is often interpreted in psychology as ‘pattern’ or ‘configuration.’ Gestalt psychology is a school of thought that looks at the human mind and behavior as a whole rather than as separate entities. When trying to make sense of the world around us, Gestalt psychology suggests that we do not simply focus on every small component; rather, we perceive the small pieces as elements of more complex systems. Essentially, Gestalt psychology suggests that the whole is greater than the sum of its parts.

Gestalt Therapy vs Other Major Therapies

  • Psychodynamic Therapy: Emphasizes exploring past experiences and unconscious conflicts, whereas Gestalt therapy stays in the here-and-now. Psychodynamic techniques are talk-based (free association and interpretation), in contrast to Gestalt’s experiential exercises in session. The therapist is less directive, acting as an interpreter rather than actively engaging the client as in Gestalt.

 Person Centered Therapy!

Hello To, All My Readers Followers and Blogging Friends ❤

Hope All of You are keeping in Good Health as much as possible. And “Keeping yourself Positive and Motivated as Best as possible. I have been writing about Various ways of Therapies to Become Well” And today I am writing about The Existential Therapy: writing with more Positive feelings at this time of my Life with Healing Energies I am receiving 🙂



Person-centered therapy was developed by Carl Rogers in the 1940s and 1950s, and was brought to public awareness largely through his book Client-centered Therapy, published in 1951 It has been recognized as one of the major types of psychotherapy (theoretical orientations), along with psychodynamic psychotherapy, psychoanalysis, classical Adlerian psychology, cognitive behavioral therapy, existential therapy,, “the facts are always friendly”.

Person-centered therapy is often described as a humanistic therapy, but its main principles appear to have been established before those of humanistic psychology but, by the mid-1960s, Rogers accepted being categorized with other psychologists in contrast to behavioral and psychoanalytic psychologists. Despite the importance of the self to person-centered theory, the theory is fundamentally organismic and holistic in nature.

The Person-Centered Approach was developed from the work of the psychologist Dr. Carl Rogers (1902–1987). He advanced an approach to psychotherapy and counseling that, at the time (the 1940s–1960s), was considered extremely radical. The psychological environment described by Rogers was one where a person felt free from threat, both physically and psychologically. This environment could be achieved when being in a relationship with a person who was deeply understanding (empathic), accepting (having unconditional positive regard) and genuine (congruent).

Originally described as non-directive, this therapy moved away from the idea that the therapist was the expert and towards a theory that trusted the innate tendency (known as the actualizing tendency) of human beings to find fulfilment of their personal potentials. An important part of this theory is that in a particular psychological environment, the fulfilment of personal potentials includes sociability, the need to be with other human beings and a desire to know and be known by other people. It also includes being open to experience, being trusting and trustworthy, being curious about the world, being creative and compassionate.

The psychological environment described by Rogers was one where a person felt free from threat, both physically and psychologically. This environment could be achieved when being in a relationship with a person who was deeply understanding (empathic), accepting (having unconditional positive regard) and genuine (congruent).

Applications

Person-centered therapy has been adapted for a variety of populations and settings. For example, a randomized controlled trial in Portugal demonstrated that PCT significantly improved self-esteem in older adults by reducing the gap between their real and ideal selves. These improvements were maintained at a 12-month follow-up, suggesting long-term effectiveness in aging populations.[27]

PCT has also been applied in educational and youth counseling settings. Its emphasis on empathy, acceptance, and authentic communication makes it particularly effective for adolescents and young adults who are navigating identity development, interpersonal challenges, and emotional regulation. Additionally, the non-directive nature of PCT allows it to be used across cultural contexts where traditional therapist-led approaches may not align with community values or client expectations.

The adaptability of person-centered therapy stems from its core belief that the client is the expert in their own experience. This principle enables therapists to work effectively with diverse populations while maintaining a strong respect for individual autonomy and cultural differences.

Although initially developed as an approach to psychotherapy (eventually becoming known as client/person-centred therapy/counselling), Rogers and his colleagues came to believe that their ideas could be transferred to other areas where people were in relationships. For example teaching, management, childcare, patient care, conflict resolution. Today there are many people who, although not working as psychotherapists and counsellors, use the work of Rogers as guiding principles in their day-to-day work and relationships.

At one level, Rogers’ theory and work is very simple to describe. As many people would attest, both those using the approach and those working as person-therapists/counsellors, it can be very difficult to put into practice because the approach does not use techniques but relies on the personal qualities of the therapist/person to build a non-judgmental and empathic relationship.

Effectiveness

Research on the effectiveness of person-centered therapy (PCT) across various clinical conditions has produced mixed but encouraging results. While PCT has generally been found to yield positive outcomes for anxiety and depression, some studies suggest it may be less effective than structured approaches like cognitive-behavioral therapy (CBT) in certain contexts. For example, a 2013 meta-analysis found that experiential therapies, including PCT, showed improvement in clients with anxiety from pre- to post-treatment, although they often performed below CBT in direct comparisons.[25]

Even so, PCT offers distinct advantages. Its focus on emotional depth, client autonomy, and a non-directive therapeutic environment can be particularly helpful for individuals who prefer a more supportive and less structured approach to therapy.[25] These qualities may also make PCT a good fit for clients who have had negative experiences with more prescriptive or diagnosis-driven models.

Recent findings suggest that outcomes improve when therapy is matched to individual client needs. Their results showed that clients who received the therapy most aligned with their predicted treatment response experienced significantly better outcomes than those who received a non-matching therapy.] This supports the idea that while PCT may not be ideal for every individual, it can be highly effective when personalized to the client. PCT has also shown promise with specific populations. In a older adults who received person-centered therapy reported significant improvements in self-esteem. These gains were maintained for at least 12 months after the intervention, highlighting PCT’s potential for long-term impact and its adaptability across age groups.

Existential Therapy!

Hello to, All My Dear Readers, Followers and My Blogging Friends ❤

Hope All of You are keeping in Good Health as much as possible. And “Keeping yourself Positive and Motivated as Best as possible. I have been writing about Various ways of Therapies to Become Well” And today I am writing about The Existential Therapy: writing with more Positive feelings at this time of my Life with Healing Energies I am receiving 🙂

Viktor Emil Frankl (Austrian German: [ˈfraŋkl̩]; 26 March 1905 – 2 September 1997) was an Austrian neurologist, psychologist, philosopher, who founded logotherapy, a school of psychotherapy that describes a search for a life’s meaning as the central human motivational force. Logotherapy is part of existential and humanistic psychology theories. Logotherapy was promoted as the third school of Viennese Psychotherapy, after those established by Sigmund Freud and Alfred Adler. Frankl published 39 books. The autobiographical Man’s Search for Meaning, a best-selling book, is based on his experiences,

Viktor Frankl (born March 26, 1905, Vienna, Austria September 2, 1997, Vienna) was an Austrian psychiatrist and psychotherapist who developed the psychological approach known as logotherapy, widely recognized as the “third school” of Viennese psychotherapy, after the “first school” of Sigmund Freud and the “second school” of Alfred Adler. The basis of Frankl’s theory was that the primary motivation of an individual is the search for meaning in life and that the primary purpose of psychotherapy should be to help the individual find that meaning.

I have done in a different way. Very much easier to read I was very lucky to have found these picture quotes instead of writing See someone is teaching 🙂
