9. Attachment and Biobehavioural Catch-up (ABC)


ANS: Attachment and Biobehavioral Catch-up (ABC) is a 10-week home visit
program for families with infants and toddlers who've experienced neglect or other
challenges. It aims to improve how caregivers respond to their children's cues.
Through coaching, caregivers learn to be more nurturing and responsive, fostering
secure attachment and better emotional regulation in their children.
10. Aim of play therapy
Play therapy uses a child's natural language of play to address emotional and
social struggles. In a safe space with a trained therapist, children explore their
experiences and feelings through toys, games, and creativity. This helps them
develop coping mechanisms, express themselves healthily, and build essential
social skills.
11. Cognitive analytic therapy

Cognitive analytic therapy (CAT) is a talk therapy that delves into how your
relationships, both past and present, shape your thoughts, feelings, and
behaviors. It emphasizes understanding how early life experiences form patterns
in your interactions with others and yourself.

Here's the gist of CAT in 100 words:

 Focuses on relationship patterns: Explores how childhood experiences


influence how you connect with others and yourself.
 Short-term therapy: Typically lasts 16-24 weeks, making it a goal-oriented
approach.
 Collaborative effort: You and your therapist work together to understand
your patterns and develop new ways of coping.
 Benefits: Can help with depression, anxiety, personality disorders, and
relationship issues.

12. Systematic desensitization

Systematic desensitization, also called graduated exposure therapy, is a type of


therapy used to treat phobias and anxiety disorders.

Its conquering your fears step-by-step. That's systematic desensitization. We


learn relaxation techniques and create a list of fear triggers, ranked from mild to
intense. With the therapist, you gradually expose yourself to these triggers while

staying relaxed. Over time, the anxiety response weakens, replaced by a sense of
calm. It's like retraining your brain to react differently to what used to scare you.

13.Multimodal therapy
Multimodal therapy (MMT) tackles mental health issues like a conductor leading
an orchestra. It combines various "modes" of treatment, not just one. Imagine
targeting thoughts, feelings, behaviors, bodily sensations, and even social
interactions – that's MMT! This holistic approach creates a personalized treatment
plan to address the whole you, leading to lasting change.
14. Negative punishment
Negative punishment, also known as punishment by removal, is a technique used
in behavior modification to decrease unwanted behaviors. Unlike positive
punishment, which adds an unpleasant consequence (like a scolding), negative
punishment removes something desirable. This could be a privilege (like phone
time), a possession (a favorite toy), or even attention (leaving the room when a
child throws a tantrum). The key is that the removed item or experience must be
something the individual finds reinforcing, weakening the association between the
unwanted behavior and the reward it previously provided.
15. Types of groups
Groups come in all shapes and sizes! Formal groups, with clear goals and
leadership, tackle projects at work. Informal groups, like friend circles, form
naturally for social connection. Primary groups, like families, offer close bonds and
support. Secondary groups, like clubs, focus on shared interests. We feel a
connection to our in-groups, and openness varies – some are easy to join, while
others are exclusive. Understanding these types helps us navigate social
situations and group dynamics.
16. Life review therapy
Life review therapy is a form of psychotherapy where you journey through your
past with a therapist. It's like revisiting your life story, but with a focus on
understanding and integrating past experiences. Think of it as weaving a tapestry
of your life, incorporating both joys and challenges. The goal? To find meaning,
purpose, and acceptance of your life's path, leading to greater peace and well-
being, especially for older adults.
17. Psychosocial tasks of middle adulthood
Middle adulthood, roughly between the ages of 40 and 65, is a time of significant
growth and change. During this period, individuals grapple with a number of
Page 2 of 3
psychosocial tasks that can shape the rest of their lives. Here are two main
psychosocial tasks of middle adulthood:

Generativity vs. Stagnation: Erikson's theory of psychosocial development
proposes that middle adulthood is all about generativity, leaving your mark
on the world in a positive way.
 Reassessment of Life Choices: Middle adulthood is also a time for
reflection. Individuals often take stock of their lives, reassessing their
choices, accomplishments, and goals.
18. Projective identification
Projective identification, a dynamic explored in psychoanalysis, unfolds like an
unconscious emotional tug-of-war. We project unwanted feelings, perhaps anxiety
or anger, onto someone else. This unsuspecting person then starts experiencing
and expressing those very emotions we've placed upon them. It can be a way to
manage overwhelming feelings by pushing them outwards, or even a manipulative
tactic to control another's behavior. Therapists play a crucial role in untangling this
web. By recognizing these projections and fostering open communication, they
can help us reclaim ownership of our emotions and build healthier relationships.
