Q

extinction

A

in vivo exposure - presenting the conditioned stimulus (example - a spider) without the unconditioned stimulus (example - a screaming mother) to eliminate the unwanted responses (fear)
- studies show that high anxiety arousal is not necessary for successful treatment with in vivo exposure.

exposure in imagination - type of therapy called implosive therapy, client is exposed to a feared object in their imagination and the therapist interprets possible psychosexual themes

Q

systematic desensitization

A
  • first, train the client in relaxation techniques
  • second, construct an anxiety hierarchy
  • third, expose the client slowly using the anxiety hierarchy while they use their relaxation techniques (can be in vivo or in imagination)
  • the process continues until the situation that originally provoked the anxiety only elicits relaxation
  • counterconditioning

Q

aversive counterconditioning

A
  • used to eliminate “bad” or “deviant” behaviours
  • the conditioned stimulus is paired with a new and stronger stimulus that elicits a strong negative response

example: smoking a cigarette is paired with an electric shock, OR, the drug Antabuse (for those trying to quit drinking)

*when aversive counterconditioning is done in imagination, it is called covert sensitization

triangulation (unstable coalition) vs. stable coalition (structural) vs. Detouring (attack/support) coalition

A

(a) Stable Coalition:
- Definition: Parent-child alliance against the other parent.
- Example: Parent A and Child align against Parent B.
- Impact: Can create a stable but rigid family dynamic.

- Definition: Each parent vies for the child’s alliance.
- Example: Parent A seeks child’s support against Parent B.
- Impact: Tension, confusion, and instability in family relationships.

(c) Detouring-Attack Coalition:
- Definition: Parents blame the child, avoiding their own conflict.
- Example: Parents blame the child for marital issues.
- Impact: Child becomes a scapegoat, masking parental conflicts.

(d) Detouring-Support Coalition:
- Definition: Parents overprotect the child to evade their own conflict.
- Example: Parents shield the child from their relationship problems.
- Impact: Child becomes a focal point, masking underlying issues.

A

Children: insufficient evidence.
Teens: CBT or IPT-A, fluoxetine (first line)
Adults: combined treatment more effective (drugs: SSRI/SNRI). CBT, mindfulness based cognitive therapy, IPT, behavioural therapy, psychodynamic and supportive therapy. Combined CBT or IPT with AD is best for chronic/treatment resistant.
OAs: group CBT, combination of IPT with SNRI. Not enough support for bibliotherapy or life review.

A

St John: similar effects to SSRI for mild/moderate depression. Caution with seratonin drug mixing

Ketamine: effective for treatment resistant depression+suicidal ideation. Form: nasal spray + oral AD. Admin under supervisor of Dr.

ECT: high success for severe depression. Faster response/remission rates vs therapy and other drugs. Side effects: anterograde & retrograde amnesia.

rTMS: non invasive for treatment resistant depression. Lower response/remission rates than ECT but no sedation or memory loss.

Telepsych: similar to face to face
