Cognitive\nBehavioral Therapy: Group Settings Versus Family Settings<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Cognitive\nbehavioral therapy (CBT) helps in the treatment of broad and varieties of\npsychological problems and it has been proven to be effective in different\nkinds of mental problems including depression, anxiety disorders, alcohol and\ndrug use problem, marital problem, eating disorder and severe mental illness.\nCBT is also well proven to improve a patients quality of life with an\nindividual, families or group setting. (American Psychological Association,\n2019). Individual CBT can be too intensive to comprehend for some patient,\nwhereas Group cognitive behavioral therapy (GCBT) is proven effective in\ndelivering CBT, especially to patients that seems challenging GCBT is proven to\nbe more efficient treatment that adequately treats behavioral problems (Naik et\nal. 2013). In other to recommend GCBT more work needs: such as establishing patients\nperception, in the ongoing treatment, whether or not symptoms are been reduced\nin real clinical setting. Even though CBT has been said to be effective in the\ntreatment of some mental issues the effectiveness depends on the disorder\npresented by the patient (Naik et al. 2013). CBT is highly effective in the treatment of adult unipolar depression,\nadolescent unipolar depression, bulimia nervosa, childhood depressive and\nanxiety disorders, generalized anxiety disorder, panic disorder with or without\nagoraphobia, post-traumatic stress disorder, schizophrenia, and social phobia\n(Naik et al. 2013). <\/p>\n\n\n\n
Group cognitive behavioral therapy\nhas also been shown to be more cost-effective because Group treatment has been\npresented as a more cost-effective method of treating a large number of\nchildren and adolescents especially in children or adolescent with anxiety\ndisorders, depression, bulimia nervosa to mention but a few. Group CBT result\nin reduced medical and nonmedical costs, thereby contributing to a societal\ncost offset, but in a family setting, there is the scarcity of\nproperly trained therapists and high costs (Hedman et al.2010). However, CBT is\nnot readily available in healthcare settings. Therefore, it is essential to\ndevelop and evaluate methods of therapy that are more time- and cost-efficient.\nBecause health care resources are limited, there has been an increasing demand\nfor cost-effective treatments that reduce the societal costs of sick leave and\nhealth care consumption (Hedman et al.2010).<\/p>\n\n\n\n
An example of comparing CBT and GCBT is a\npatient that presented to my clinical site diagnosed with Agoraphobia, she\nwon\u2019t come for individual therapy or come very late and leave early, she wont\ntalk to the therapist during session, but she enjoys coming to the female group\nand is committed to coming, because she feels the support of the group, she\nopens a little more then when she\u2019s in individual therapy, she\u2019s thriving\nbetter.\n<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
