I am a long-distance undergrad student at Athabasca University working toward a BA in psych, and I can not express enough how helpful these videos are for me. As a mature student, who has not been in school since before 2001 (before the digital revolution), I miss having the opportunity to listen to lectures and take notes. This has been a great addition to my textbook by Gerald Corey. Thank you.
Thank you so much. Glad this helps. Another group book that has been helpful is Jacobs, E., Schimmel, C. J., Masson, R. L., and Harvill, R. L. (2015). Group Counseling Strategies and Skills: (8th Ed.). California: Brooks-Cole. It comes with some videos so you can see what you are reading about. Keep working toward that degree, we need you out here!
Thank you for this. I’ve known about CBT and DBT for years. For myself, I arrived at my own solution a five months ago with quite a breakthrough over toxic shame spiraling. Whenever I get depressive, toxic shame, self talk, or feelings, I begin immediately scanning my mind by naming all of the feelings that I’m having. For example: I feel scared. I feel ashamed. I feel discarded. I feel resentment. I feel abandoned. It’s not only naming the feelings, but meditating and focusing on the feelings and forcing myself to welcome them to pass through me. It’s so hard to explain how this feels to someone else. I think bottom line is we MUST be willing and ready for it. I think it comes to a place where we get so tired of being, sick and tired, that we break down to the point that we are now ready to face it. It’s only taken me 59 years. That’s how it has been for me. Oddly enough, I feel so powerful over my shame bound history lately. When I get negative emotions, I tell myself “this exercise of working through them is going to be powerful”. I tell myself… “You can do it. You’re going to show yourself these emotions and you’re going to get through This horrible depression feeling you’re having right now”. The more I practice Being mindful to it and giving it the space it deserves, the more it goes away that More quickly. Now I look at it as a challenge in a good way to welcome focusing on these feelings because it’s making me feel powerful to command the way that I react to my Internal judgment and shame of emotions. I would say that it’s creating a turning point in my life. I also have written a script on my iPhone notes of encouragement when I’m feeling spiraling. I played the script back to myself when I need extra support. It really helps!
My references are getting old along with me but Columbo gives us really good examples of double-sided reflections. Glad you liked the video. All the best!
Thank you so much for this! It's so comprehensive. Really helps when you have loads of material and can't grasp them in a short period of time. So thank youuuu❤❤
I'm so glad you liked it. More recovery stuff coming out soon. Stay tuned and thank you for the work that you do! I find no greater joy than helping someone back from the edge of "the abyss". I was on that edge myself back when.
Do you think CBT could be used to suppress neurotypical behavior and induce autistic behavior in s non-autistic individuals? I would offer to apply it to you!
I'm not sure why anyone would want to do that. I'd be more interested in the reverse, as I've seen what a hard time people with autism have had in emergency rooms and psych hospitals. I appreciate your offer but I have a family member with autism and it doesn't look like a very good time to me. Thanks for watching!
The assumption of "maladaptiveness" is so destructive. Why force the vast majority of people who need help BUT are not mal-anything to either be disqualified by their own "therapist" or alone with the problems a sh.tty society may be causing them?
I spent quite a bit of time thinking about your comment and you raised a bunch of great points. One is: I disqualify nobody. I may not agree with what a person thinks or does but they and their views are as valid as my own. I don't have to agree with someone to work with them as a therapist. For example, I work with active addicts, people who are violent, white supremacists, and people with every legal charge. They all deserve the best of care and my best efforts to that end. "Maladaptive" to me means whatever isn't serving you or helping you to grow and thrive and if someone is coming to therapy, they want to change something (thought process, feeling, behavior) and my job is to help them do that and CBT is a great way of showing the interaction between thoughts, feelings, and behavior and how our inner world is reflected back to us in the outer world. If a thought, feeling, or behavior works for you, run with it.
Thoughts= i am a catalan speaker person that like all catalans are being treated as second class citizens because we cannot fully use our own language in our own country. I believe spanish speaking people are cultural genociders because there are non native speakers elsewhere. Mood= obviously angry, when i have to be forced to speak spanish in order to visit the doctor,university, daily life matters, despite living in my country Catalonia . Behaviour= isolation,depression, feeling the world likes fascism and racism since everyone is happy with the spanish language narrative and their promotion of their dances and music .
You nailed the 'pyramid', albeit with a subject I'm not familiar with. I have seen a similar thing in countries that have been colonized/occupied/taken over by neighboring countries, where the "home language" is commonly spoken, but the language of the "colonizer" is used exclusively in professional settings. Memmi's 'The Colonizer and the Colonized' is an interesting look at that. My use of the CBT 'pyramid' now focuses on creating two processes, one when the person feels ok and one when they don't. It is interesting how both coexist in the same person. Thanks for watching and I'm going to do some homework on Catalonia and the Catalan language.

As a Columbo fan, i enjoyed the reference. I will rewatch the show with new perspective.
I enjoyed the video, very easy to understand CBT. Thank you!
My references are getting old along with me but Columbo gives us really good examples of double-sided reflections. Glad you liked the video. All the best!
Thank you very much for this video ❤

Glad to help and thanks for watching!
I loved the little jokes. This greatly helps with my job in an inpatient drug and alcohol setting. Thank you!
I'm so glad you liked it. More recovery stuff coming out soon. Stay tuned and thank you for the work that you do! I find no greater joy than helping someone back from the edge of "the abyss". I was on that edge myself back when.

So helpful as a life coach working with addiction and anxiety frequently.
Glad to hear it. Check out the videos on addictions and process addictions which go into that deeper. Keep up the good work!
Very informative thank you so much.
