Classical Conditioning- A neutral stimulus paired with another to elicit certain emotions through association. (Pavlov’s dog, ringing the bell when presenting food).
Coaching- Therapist helps clients make appropriate responses giving verbal instructions. (Marcy, when you want Mike to stop and pay attention to you, tap him gently. Mike, this will be your cue that she needs your attention).
Contingency Contracting- Sets the terms for exchanging of behaviors and reinforcers between individuals.

pairing with mental relaxation. Time-Out- Removal of person from an environment in which they are
reinforced for certain actions. Job Card Grounding- Behavior mod technique used with pre &
adolescents (age 11-18) . Grounding- Disciplinary technique used with adolescents where

Cons of CBTCons of CBT
Some therapist are rigid Client picks out problem. Therapist only works on that
problem and typically won’t address other maladaptive bx Brings about linear changes, which can hinder a complete
family change Lack of spontaneity could result in losing rapport with
families. Therapist & family could end up becoming frustrated and therapy won’t be as effective
Too much emphasis may be given to using methods like time out without the family members understanding the root of problem
