Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT)
* Most widely used, used to help identify negative thoughts to change feelings (emotions) and behaviors (Aaron Beck)

33
Motivational Interviewing
* Preparing individuals for change
* The stages are cognitive and behavioral
* In the early phases, people tend to focus on thinking about change-whether change is something they need to consider
* In later stages, people are actively doing things to change or maintaining the changes that they have been able to make
* By identifying where a person is in the change cycle, interventions can be tailored to the individual's "readiness" to progress in the recovery process
* Interventions that do not match the person's readiness are less likely to succeed and more likely to damage rapport, create resistance, and impede change
* Anything that moves a person through the stages toward a positive outcome should be regarded as a success

34
Solution Focused Therapy
* Future-focused, goal-directed, and focuses on solutions, rather than on the problems that brought clients to seek therapy
* Major influence in such diverse fields as business, social policy, education, and criminal justice services, child welfare, domestic violence offenders treatment
