Jung's analytical Psychotherapy
|
Jung belived that behavior is determined by both past events and future goals and aspirations. Personality is the consequence of both conscious and unconscious factors. Unconscious represents the individual's thoughts, ideas, feelings, sensory perceptions and memories and is oriented toward the external world and governed by the ego.
|
|
Jung's view of the unconscious
|
Unconscious is made personal unconscious which contains experiences that were once conscious but now are repressed or forgotten or were unconsciously percieved and the 2) cllective unconscious is latent memory traces that have been passed down from one genration to the next.
|
|
archetypes

Jung also described personality as consiting of two attitudes and four basic psychological functions these are:
|
extraversion and introversion and four basic psychological functions, thinking, feeling, sensing and intuiting.
|
|
Jungian perspective of maladaptive behavior
|
symptoms are unconscious messages to the individuals that something is awry with him and that present him with a task that demads to be fulfilled
|
|
Whats is the primary goal of Jung's Analytical psychotherapy?
|
To rebridge the gap between the conscious and the personal and collective unconscious. This goal is achieved by interpretations that help the client become familiar with his or her inner world. Dream work is a key component of therapy because it is believed to be how collective unconscious is expressed.
|
|
Jungian and transference
|
Transference according to Jung is thought to be projections of the personal and collective unconscious and feels that transference plays a crucial role in therapy. However, he also considers countertransference to be a useful therapeutic tool that can provide the terapist with information about what is happening in the course of therapy

Ego analysts
|
Ego analsysts emphasise the ego on personality development (hence the name). They distinguish between two ego functions: The ego defensive functions and the ego autonomous functions.

The Ego autonomous functions however represent the "confliect fee ego sphere" and include such adaptive functions such as speech, learning, memory and pereption. They view personality as COUNTINUING THROUGH OUT THE LIFE SPAN RATHER THAN BEING FIXED IN CHILDHOOD

The symbiotic phase if from the second to the eight month and is fused with its mother and does not differentiate betwee "I" and "not-I"
Development of separation individuation phase is where the development of object relationsihps occurs. |
|
Object relations view of maladaptive behaviors

|
Therapy goals of Gestalt therapy
|
help a client achieve integration of the various aspects of the self in order to become a unified whole.
|
|
Gestalt therapy techniques
|
like prson center, gestalt also uses a noninterpretaive technique that focuses on the present awareness that doesn't focus on cognitive interpretation. They regard transference as "transference fantasy" and helf the clients to recognize the difference between reality
|
|
One of the primary factors in gestalt
|
foster awareness or a full understanding of one's thoughts feelings and actions. Therapists do this by directed awareness: Asking simple direct questions to keep the client in the here and now. NO questions: clients are discouraged to ask questions especially why questions because it masks ture feelings and fosters intellectualization.
Using I langanguage: Clients are encouraged to begin sentences with "I" in order to help them assume responsibility for their actions. Assuming responsibility: Clients are asked to tack on the phrase: ANd I take responsibility for it. Empty chair technique. And dream work |
|
Family Therapy
|
built on general system theory which proposes that family is an entity that can be understood through the mutual interaction of it's components. It is an open system in which it takes in input and discharges output into the community or the environment. This system continues to strive for homeostasis or equilibrium.
|
|
Cybernetics
|
another model of the family therapy theory and is based on the concept of feed back loops either negative or postive feed back. Postive feedback encourages deviation or change which can disrupt the system and result in breakdown or runaways. The negative feed back loops reduce deviation and help a system maintain it's status quo. IN therapy, positive feed back promotes appropriate change in a dysfunctional family system
|
|
Application of family therapy
|
Family therapy is preferred over individual therapy when the later has not been effective, when a change in the client will affect the whole system, when there is a family conflict, when the family is maing one member the scape gaot for shared problems or when there is a family related crisis. It is not appropriate however when the family members are unavailable or not willing to participate.

communication interaction therapy assumption
|
1. People are always communicating even when they are doing nothing. 2. Communication has a report and command function the report function is the content (informational) aspect of communication and the command function is the nonverbal that portrays the relaships between the communicator. Problems arise when these two are not consistent. 3. Communication patterns are either symettrical or complementary. Symmetrical reflects equality between communicators and may foster competiveness. 4. Principal of equifinity: the result will be the same no matter where the change occurs in the system

|
|
Central limit theorem
|
The tehorem derived from probability theory that predicts that the samping distribution of means will approach a normal shape as the sample size increases, regardless of the shape of the population distribution of scores. )also derived from probability theory are the predictions that the mean of sampnig distribution of means equals the population mean and its standard deviation equals the population standard deviation divided by the square root of N>.

|
