What is behavior therapy?

Behavioral and cognitive therapies do not aim to deeply modify the whole of a personality, through a long and restrictive treatment. They aim to change behavior that ruins a person's life. These therapies target behaviors that we would like to get rid of but which are repeated in spite of ourselves, escaping our will, as well as any logical approach. For example, blushing in the presence of an interlocutor, anxiety in closed places, but also smoking, bulimia, etc. And this, with the active participation of the subject. These therapies operate on two complementary registers: behavior and cognition, that is to say the thought processes.

Principles of treatment

We consider that these behaviors that we want to eliminate have been learned (we can just as easily speak of conditioning, in the Pavlovian sense) in a defective way, from a given situation. This situation will then play a role of triggering signal, throughout life, if nothing is done ... We assume that what has been learned can be undone, which will allow a new learning to be substituted for the previous one. , better suited. This with the help of the therapist who serves as a model and guide at the same time. Hence concrete exercises, which will consist in confronting the situation in question gradually, in order, in a way, to desensitize. This will be done in the company of the therapist, the work then continuing in solitary daily exercises. But we always associate these corrective experiences with an action on cognition, that is to say on thought processes. Because behavior is always determined by a thought pattern, always immutable. One thinks for example, "if I talk to him, he will judge me badly" and blocking behavior follows. We will therefore seek to raise awareness about these rigid interior dialogues that precede the behavior against which we want to fight. This then allows you to modify them. Tools used in behavioral therapy: transactional analysis, NLP, Ericksonian and therapeutic hypnosis and EMDR. Hypnosis: Induction of a state of slight modification of consciousness in which the patient can direct his attention towards a specific goal. This technique, created by the American psychiatrist Milton H. Erickson, is renowned for its action on anxiety and addictions. NLP: Neurolinguistic programming (NLP) is a set of communication and self-transformation techniques that focuses on our reactions rather than the origins of our behaviors. It favors the how to the why, offers an observation grid to improve the perception we have of ourselves and of others. It also allows you to set goals and achieve them. It is a toolbox, the key to which lies in the language and the use that each of us makes of our five senses and our body. EMDR: moving your eyes to heal the mind? This is the bet of EMDR, a method founded by the American psychologist Francine Shapiro. EMDR allows the restart of a natural adaptive processing of blocked painful information (for example after a traumatic shock), the mobilization of psychological resources and the restoration of a deficient self-esteem. I use other therapeutic tools: EFT, AIPP Method and Global Health therapy. Also discover therapeutic hypnosis.
