By completing this matrix, I have learned that it is possible for all of the therapy approaches to be beneficial in treating some of the same disorders. Some probably work more effectively for certain disorders than others however; they all seem to be effective to some extent, either short- or long-term results, to all of the disorders listed. All of the therapy approaches in this matrix are directed toward mental health disorders. The matrix has also opened my eyes to realization that I have much studying to do to be able pin-point most effective treatments to certain disorders rather than generalized disorder categories.…

Evidence suggests that some therapy approaches work better than others. Criteria for empirically supported therapies have been defined by Chambless and Hollon (1998). Accordingly, a therapy is considered efficacious and specific if there is evidence from at least two settings that it is superior to a pill or psychological placebo or another bona fide treatment. If there is evidence from two or more settings that the therapy is superior to no treatment it is considered efficacious. If there is support from one or more studies from just a single setting, the therapy is considered possibly efficacious pending replication. Following these guidelines, cognitive behavior therapy (CBT) stands out as having the most empirical support for a wide range of symptoms in adults, adolescents, and children. Unfortunately, the term "evidence-based practice" is not always used in such a rigorous fashion, and many psychologists claim to follow "evidence-based approaches" even when the methods they use do not meet established criteria for efficacy (Berke, Rozell, Hogan, Norcross, and Karpiak, 2011). In reality, not all mental health practitioners receive training in evidence-based approaches, and members of the public are often unaware that evidence-based practices exist.…

For seven of the 12 studies there was a follow up assessment measurement done at 6-12 months posttreatment, there was a significant effect on the patients when they maintained the CBT/MI treatment. Another, more simplistic design had 285 patients that was conducted with a baseline assessment and another 15 week post baseline, a control group which (n=70) had no treatment at all, following 9 sessions which was focused solely on depression (n=68), lastly they combined treatment of alcohol and depression (n=75). The prediction was treatment would be most significant in the dual diagnosed group. Many of the same devices were used to evaluate depression and alcohol intake and intervention was introduced in week two starting with Cognitive Behavioral therapy with some motivational words and coping mechanisms introduced.

DBT helps patients to be aware of these emotions, yet control the actions that they do to express the emotions. With this therapy clients work to stay in the moment and focus on the present time rather than worrying and being anxious about what will happen next. Some of the activities presented in DBT are counting to ten, breathing exercises, and sensational exercises. Some patients find Dialectal Behavioral Therapy to be more beneficial than Cognitive Behavioral Therapy because they found it beneficial to focus on where they were right now instead of putting more emphasis on changed thoughts and…
