Description

Dr. Donald Meichenbaum tries to integrate the clinical concerns of psychodynamic and cognitive-semantic therapy with the technology of behavior therapy. In his view, the role of therapy is to help the client become aware of the processes that affect behavior (thoughts, beliefs, internal dialogues, images, feelings, and the way we appraise the environment), to help the client learn about the patterns he or she repeats in different situations, and to make the client aware of the reactions he or she elicits from others. In this program, Meichenbaum works with "Richard" on unfreezing his beliefs, discovering options, and making changes.
