  1. AP Psychology 4/10/14

  2. Warm-up • Turn in Therapy graphic organizer.

  3. Psychoanalytic Therapy • NOT psychodynamic in this case…confusing! • Freudian • Free association • Provide insight • Transference • Dream interpretation • 3-7 years @$150/session…

  4. Psychodynamic therapy • Based off Freud • Shorter, cheaper, goal-directed • Face-to-face therapy • Interpersonal psychotherapy: short and intended to relieve symptoms

  5. Humanistic therapy • What is troubling here and now…address this and symptoms will disappear • Responsibility on individual: client-center (nondirective) • Unconditional positive regard from therapist (Rogers) • Gestalt therapy (Frederick Perls): intended to focus on the present (existential) and enable people to make better choices based on their whole (gestalt) circumstances. • Existential therapy (Irvin Yalom): helps people cope with existence—inevitability of death, “condemned to be free,” and meaninglessness.

  6. Behavior therapy • Change the behavior/symptoms = change the problem • Systematic desensitization (gradual) • Aversive conditioning (opposite of S.D.) • Flooding (used to treat phobias with prolonged exposure) • Token economy (questions of ethics & “real world”)

  7. Cognitive therapy • Correct distorted thinking and symptoms disappear • Aaron Beck (father of cognitive therapy)

  8. Cognitive-Behavioral Therapy • RET (Rational Emotive Therapy) – Albert Ellis • Dissatisfied with psychoanalytic, so he developed a new approach. • “People are not bothered by things but by their view of things.”

  9. Family therapy • Treats a family as a system • Genogram (pictorial display of relationships—visualize patterns & factors in genetic tree/relationships) • You don’t actually draw the people 

  10. Meta-analysis • Statistically combining many research studies.

  11. Psychopharmacology(biological therapy) • Electroconvulsive Therapy (ECT) = extreme depression • Psychosurgery: lobotomies…are not good (sorry guys) • Chemotherapy: antipsychotics, antianxiety, antidepressants

  12. Antipsychotics (neuroleptics) • Major tranquilizers • Schizophrenia: chloropromazine, haloperidol • Side effects: tardivedyskenesia (involuntary muscle movements) and neuroleptic malignant syndrome (delirium, coma, death) • New-generation antipsychotics (clozapine)

  13. Antianxiety • Minor tranquilizers • Xanax, Valium • Increase Cl ions (chloride) in nerve cells which decrease transmission • Side effects: dependency, weakness/paralysis

  14. Antidepressants • Increase serotonin/norepinephrine levels in synapse • MAOI: monoamine oxidase inhibitor (MAO breaks down serotonin and norepinephrine) • Tricyclics: prevents reuptake of serotonin and norepinephrine • SSRIs: Serotonin prevented from reuptake into terminal button (Prozac) • Lithium carbonate (Li2CO3): treats bipolar disorder (as well as schizophrenia occasionally). Dampens extreme mood swings

  15. Psychologist vs. Psychiatrist • Psychologist = PhD in psychology • Psychiatrist = degree in medicine (can prescribe medicine)
