  2. RtI Tiered Behavioral InterventionsCounseling Applications Tier I Universal – All Students Positive Behavioral Support: Frequent recognition for appropriate behaviors, proximity control, cueing, build-in appropriate movement opportunities (e.g., Kagan Brain Ex.), predictable structure, positively-phrased and highly visible behavioral expectations. Embedded Social Curriculum: Instruction in prosocial behavior/attitudes. Data Screening: School-wide climate survey, ISS/OSS data, incidence mapping, rating scales for emotional risk and social skills (SSIS, BESS, SOS) Tier II Supplemental, Targeted, Short-Term Observations, FBAs, Behavior Plans: Classroom observations to determine environmental contributors, antecedents, sustaining factors, frequency, patterns across subjects or time-of-day and task demands, self-monitoring or reinforcement plans, DRCs Counseling: Social Skills, Anger Mgmt, Test Anxiety, Friendship Groups Data Progress Monitoring: Tier II data Behavior Plans & Counseling Therapy: Individualized, greater frequency and intensity, often addressing multiple issues simultaneously Multi-agency Plans: Coordinate w/out-side agencies on counseling, behavioral plans, meds, family therapy, juvenile justice, etc. Data Progress Monitoring: Psychological assessment, Tier III data Tier III Intensive, Individual, Long-Term

  4. Three Counseling Approaches • Three Counseling Approaches • Solution-Focused • Conflicts, personal goals • Psychoeducational • E.g., Teach social skills, teach study skills • Cognitive Behavioral Therapy • Anxious behaviors, anger management, grief management

  5. Basic Protocol Formats • First Session • Intro, Rapport-Building, Confidentiality, Rules • Core Sessions Targeted Skills Curriculum • Last Session, Closure • Booster or Follow-up

  6. Progress Monitoring Data Sources(Pre/Post/Weekly) • Behavioral Observations • FBA Data • Knowledge Surveys • Rating Scales • BASC-2 Self-report • BECK Youth Inventory • RCMAS • Outcome Rating Scales; Session Rating scales, etc. • Discipline Referral Rates • Work Completion Rates • Improved Grades • Absence/Tardy Rates • Single Subject Design • Daily Behavior Report Cards • SUDS

  7. Solution-Focused Brief Therapy(SFBT) • Focus on what want to achieve (not past) • Focus how to obtain goal • Positive stated goals, measurable • Case study • Male, 6th grade, good grades • Prior counseling aggression, anxiety • Weekly sessions, 1 month CBT, 5 month SFBT (Sklare, 2005)

  8. Solution Focused Brief Therapy (SFBT) 1. Miracle Question • If you woke up & miracle happened, all of your problems were fixed… 2. What is 1st sign miracle occurred? • What would be different? 3. If we videotaped you after the miracle happened • What would you be doing? (Sklare, 2005)

  9. SFBT Cont’d • Miracle = Areas needing remediating • First sign of miracle = guides goal development • Discussed when the “miracle” has occurred • Builds positive thinking and reflection on when the student made behavioral changes (Sklare, 2005)

  10. SFBT Cont’d Scaling Questions: • Rate progress of goals on Likert scale • Use scaling as discussion point • When score high--What is preventing you from lower score? When score low– What need to do to allow that to happen? Coping Questions: • Strengths - Actions - Goals • “Things must be difficult for you. How do you manage to do so well in school?” (Sklare, 2005)

  11. Progress Monitoring Data

  12. Social Skills Protocol:Psychoeducational Approaches • Basic Components: • Teach & Model Skill (Knowledge Deficit) • Role Play w/Feedback (Performance Deficit) • Practice-Practice (Fluency Deficit) • Review • Generalization (NASP, 2004)

  13. Social Skills Protocol: Select Skill Deficits for Core Sessions • Four skill areas: • Survival Skills (respect, listening, following directions, boundaries) • Interpersonal Skills(express feelings, manners, sharing, turn-taking, nonverbal cues) • Problem-solving Skills (asking for help, apologizing, generate solutions) • Conflict Resolution Skills (dealing with teasing, peer pressure, assertion) (NASP, 2004)

  14. Second-Step Program • Unit I: Empathy Training • Focus on building feeling vocabulary • Identifying physical and situational cues • Unit II: Emotion Management • Focus on three strategies: • Self-coaching (“Stay Calm”) • Deep (Belly) Breathing, • Cognitive Distractions (Counting)

  15. Second-Step Program • Unit III: Problem-Solving • Step 1 - How do I feel? • Step 2 - What is the problem? • Step 3 – What can I do? • Prosocial behaviors and assertive “I” statements reinforced

  16. Case Example • 3 Kindergarten Males Identified • Referral Concerns: • Impulsive • Inattentive • Oppositional • Pre-intervention Data • BASC-2 Behavioral and Emotional Screening System (BESS) Parent Rating Scales • Teacher Interviews

  17. Case Example • Group Focus: • Empathy Training • Impulse Control • Problem-Solving • Weekly, 30 Minute Sessions

  18. Case ExampleProgress Monitoring Data: Calming Strategies

  19. Main CBT Components • Relaxation Training • Diaphragmatic (deep) breathing • Progressive muscle relaxation (PMR) • Cognitive Strategies • Reducing negative self-talk • Challenging unrealistic and dysfunctional thoughts • Considering different perspectives • Behavior Strategies • Behavioral exposures • Successive approximation • Problem-Solving Techniques

  20. CBT for Childhood OCD

  21. Anxiety-Reductive Compulsive Disorders • Marked by obsessive thoughts or impulses (i.e., intrusive thoughts, feelings that produce anxiety) and anxiety-reductive behaviors (compulsions). • Negative reinforcement (i.e., the removal of something aversive) reinforces compulsive behaviors

  22. The Obsessive-Compulsive Cycle Obsessions Fear/Anxiety Reduction in Distress Compulsions Negative Reinforcement (Piacentini et al, 2006)

  23. Ritual Cycle S U D S SUDS = Subjective Units of Distress (0-100) Storch, 2006

  24. CBT Treatment Strategies • Psychoeducation • Conceptualization of OCD • Rationale for Treatment • Creation of Symptom Hierarchy • Exposure plus Response Prevention • Addressing Obsessions • Contingency Management (Piacentini et al, 2006)

  25. Symptom Hierarchy Storch, 2006

  26. OCD Thermometer • Make a OCD Thermometer (Subject Units of Distress Scale [SUDS]) • Create a list of events that cause rituals (easiest to hardest) • Be creative and ‘intense’ • Progress up that list slowly where the person does not engage in rituals. • Tackle things one at a time. • Don’t leave the situation until anxiety drops. • SUDS = Subjective Units of Distress (0-100 or 0-10) Storch, 2006

  27. Exposure and Response Prevention • Patients are gradually exposed to anxiety-provoking stimuli while refraining (or prevented) from engaging in anxiety-reductive compulsive behaviors. • Avoid providing the child with reassurance (e.g., you wont get sick) or accommodating anxiety driven behaviors (e.g., I’ll open the door for you). • CBT with exposure and response prevention (ERP) is the best established psychological treatment for OCD (Abramowitz et al., 2005; Chambless et al., 1998)

  28. Relevance of ERP in the schools • Can collaborate with other mental health professionals to facilitate treatments • Schools provide many opportunities to conduct exposures • For more information see: Sloman, G. M., Gallant, J., & Storch, E. A. (2007). A School-Based Treatment Model for Pediatric Obsessive-Compulsive Disorder. Child Psychiatry and Human Development, 38, 303-319.

  29. Case Example • 10 yr-old male • Learning Disorder • ADHD • Autism Spectrum Disorder • OCD • Referral concerns: • Frustration • Compulsive Behaviors • Touching / Retouching • Cloth Picking

  30. Case Example • Weekly CBT Sessions • Coping Strategies • Role Plays • Frustration Exposures • ERP for OCD symptoms • Graduated Exposures • Behavioral Management • Compliance Training • Contingency Reinforcement
