COUN222 Lecture Notes - Lecture 6: Bes, Supper Time, Panic Disorder
Document Summary
Activity monitoring & scheduling: activity monitoring, learn the relationship between activities & mood, especially those activities that lift mood, can be used for hypothesis testing clients who say "i never do anything fun. " We need to be specific to check the answer can you think of specific people that wouldn"t or would talk to you so we can exclude everything else. Types of behavioural experiments: hypothesis testing vs discovery, active (client doing something themselves) vs observational (client not doing anything just watching around them) - taking a survey of other peoples reactions. Logical way to move things forward: given what we"ve been discussing in this session, what do you think might be useful to take this further between now and the next session? . Otherwise if you don"t and it goes wrong the client can see this as evidence that everything goes wrong and there is not point coming back to therapy.
