    Study Notes

    CBT - Cognitive Restructuring

    • Aims to change negative or irrational thoughts to positive ones
    • María is anxious about a work presentation
    • Believes a mistake will make her seem incompetent

    Thought Record

    • ABC Method (Antecedent, Behavior, Consequence)
    • Used to track negative thoughts and their impact
    • Example: Friend cancels plans, she yells, feels guilty
    • Negative thought: Friend doesn't care, letting her down
    • Cognitive distortion: Overgeneralizing (one canceled plan doesn't mean she doesn't care)
    • Alternative thought: Perhaps a reason, one mistake doesn't define the friendship
    • Behavior change: Next time, try to stay calm and ask for reason

    Behavior Activation

    • Used for depression and anxiety, involving pleasurable activities
    • Laura, 7-year-old with ADHD, experiences rejection.
    • Negative cycle: avoids recess, believes no one likes her, feels worse
    • Motivating Laura to engage in activities like drawing or dance with a friend

    Gradual Exposure

    • Facing feared situations, beginning with low-stress and increasing difficulty to build confidence
    • Example: Laura, fearful of recess, starts by observing others play to gradually increase her interaction
    • Steps involve watching others, drawing, playing games
    • Reinforce success (each step reinforces confidence)

    Problem Solving

    • Identifying a problem and finding solutions together
    • Example: Ana and Carlos disagree; Carlos feels ignored, Ana overwhelmed with work messages
    • Identify the problem (Carlos feeling neglected)
    • Brainstorm solutions (e.g., Ana checks her phone before dinner)
    • Evaluate solutions (pros and cons for each)
    • Choose best solution (e.g., Ana checks phone 10 min before dinner)
    • Implement solution (Ana checks her phone before dinner)

    • Positive self-talk, focusing on strengths and qualities
    • Example: "I am capable of handling this situation successfully"
