1. Psychotherapy- An emotionally charged, confiding interaction between a trained therapist and
someone who suffers from psychological difficulties. 2. Biomedical Therapy- Therapy treatment through means of medication for anxiety, depression, and bipolarity. 3. Eclectic Approach- Therapists who view disorders as an interplay of bio-psycho-social influences may welcome a combination of treatments (50%). 4. Psychoanalysis- Sigmund Freud’s therapeutic technique; patient’s free associations, resistances, dreams, and transferences—and the therapist’s interpretations of them—released previously repressed feelings, allowing the patient to gain self-insight. 5. Resistance- Blocking anxiety-laden material from consciousness. 6. Interpretation- Suggestions of underlying wishes, feelings, and conflicts—aim to provide insight. 7. Transference- The patient’s transfer to the analyst of emotions linked with other relationships (such as love or hatred for a parent). 8. Client-centered Therapy- A humanistic therapy, developed by Carl Rogers, in which the therapist uses techniques such as active listening within a genuine, accepting, empathic environment to facilitate clients’ growth. 9. Active Listening- Empathic listening in which the listener echoes, restates, and clarifies; counselor provides a psychological mirror that helps clients see themselves more clearly. 10. Behavior Therapy- 11. Counterconditioning- A behavior therapy procedure that conditions new responses to stimuli that trigger unwanted behaviors. 12. Exposure Therapies- Behavioral techniques, such as systematic desensitization, that treat anxieties by exposing people (in imagination or actuality) to the things they fear and avoid. 13. Systematic Desensitization- A type of counterconditioning that associates a pleasant relaxed state with gradually increasing anxiety-triggering stimuli. Commonly used to treat phobias. 14. Virtual Reality Exposure Therapy- Alternative to real anxiety-provoking stimuli. May combine with modeling/observational learning. 15. Aversive Conditioning- A type of counterconditioning that associates an unpleasant state (such as nausea) with an unwanted behavior (such as drinking alcohol). 16. Token Economy- An operant conditioning procedure that rewards desired behavior. A patient exchanges a token of some sort, earned for exhibiting the desired behavior, for various privileges or treats. 17. Cognitive Therapy- Can boost the drug-aided relief from depression and reduce the post- treatment risk of relapse. 18. Cognitive Behavior Therapy- Combines cognitive therapy (changing self-defeating thinking) with behavior therapy (changing behavior). 19. Family Therapy- Therapy that treats the family as a system. Views an individual’s unwanted behaviors as influenced by or directed at other family members; attempts to guide family members toward positive relationships and improved communication. 20.

Benefits not necessarily long-lasting. 21. Psychopharmacology- Study of drug effects on mind and behavior. Introduction of anti- psychotic drugs in the late 50s led to rapid deinstitutionalization, sometimes without adequate community support. 22. Tardive Dyskinesia- Involuntary movements of the facial muscles, tongue, and limbs; a possible nuerotoxic side effect of long-term use of antipsychotic drugs that target D2dopamine receptors. 23. ElectroconvulsiveTherapy- A biomedical therapy for severely depressed patients in which a brief electric current is sent through the brain of an anesthetized patient. 24. Repetitive Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation- Is performed on wide-awake patients for 20 to 30 minutes for 2 to 4 weeks; may also be effective and does not produce seizures or memory loss. 25. Psychosurgery- Surgery that removes or destroys brain tissue; most drastic and the least-used biomedical intervention for changing behavior. 26.
