"Rational emotive behavior therapy (REBT), developed by Albert Ellis in the 1950s, was the first of the main cognitive-behavioral therapies. REBT centers on the theory that people naturally cope with the stressors of life by adjusting their cognitive, emotional, and behavioral reactions. It posits that people have a tendency toward irrational thinking--creating absolute beliefs for themselves such as 'I must always be liked' and 'I can't stand it when others don't treat me exactly as I think I must be treated.' Such absolutist thinking is classified as irrational, as these demands are impossible to fulfill, and they in turn create habitually negative thoughts, feelings, and behaviors. REBT therapists focus on disputing irrational thoughts by showing how they increase a client's level of disturbance. Therapists then provide ways for the client to reduce disturbance through functional, logical, and empirical disputes and by teaching methods that clients use to help themselves become less irrational and more effective in how they think, feel, and act. In this series of six sessions, Dr. Vernon works with a woman in her 20s who is struggling with anxiety related to leaving home, anger at her stepfather, and her parents' divorce many years ago. Consistent with REBT's present-focus, Dr. Vernon helps her client to recognize that she cannot change the past and, instead, helps her to deal more effectively with her present anger and anxiety. Dr. Vernon uses functional, logical, empirical, and philosophical disputes, as well as weekly homework assignments, to help her client decrease her anger and lessen the intensity of her anxiety"--Container.

Renee and Dennis, married for sixteen years, enter treatment a month after Renee discovered Dennis had been having an affair. This video documents their entire course of therapy, as Schwartz demonstrates how to help a couple work through this difficult issue. See how Schwartz helps Renee and Dennis gradually identify the key parts of themselves that interfere with their ability to be intimate with each other; for instance, Dennis's "minimizer" part activates Renee's rageful "Cruella" part by concealing and trivializing the details of his affair. While they still have work to do by the end of the sixth session, you'll be impressed with how far this couple has come with Schwartz's expert guidance. The video also includes Schwartz's introduction to the principles and techniques of Internal Family Systems Therapy, along with his commentary after each session, giving the viewer an opportunity to hear why he chose specific interventions. By watching this video, you will be able to: help couples identify their own parts that get in the way of getting and staying close to each other, create a safe atmosphere for couples to drop their defenses and engage in self-to-self connection, apply IFS principles to your own countertransference reactions so you can be more present with your clients.

"Paraphimosis is a urologic emergency that must be treated immediately in the emergency department. In most cases, manual reduction, which is a noninvasive technique, is effective."

"Pulled elbow is a common injury in young children. Reduction of a pulled elbow is a simple and benign intervention that can be performed in an outpatient setting with rapid results. Some studies have shown that the hyperpronation method is more effective than supination and may be less painful.5,6 Clinicians should be competent in treating this common pediatric injury.."

"Successful removal of a foreign body from the external auditory canal or the nasal passage depends on the size, shape, texture, and composition of the object, the length of time the object has been lodged, the patient's anatomy, the presence or absence of infection, and the number and nature of any previous attempts at removal. The likelihood of success for retrieval in an outpatient setting decreases with each additional attempt. It is important to keep the patient still by means of passive restraint or sedation and to use appropriate equipment with excellent illumination. Experience by the operator in the removal of foreign objects will increase confidence, improve technical skills, and increase the likelihood of success."

"Temporomandibular joint dislocation is easily diagnosed. If there are no facial fractures, repositioning should be performed as soon as possible, to avoid unnecessary discomfort for the patient. After the jaw has been repositioned, patients generally do well, provided that they follow the instructions for aftercare."

Ambivalence is often at the heart of our struggles to embark upon change. Motivational Interviewing, a widely used methodology in diverse settings, employs specific tools and techniques to help clients fully explore their ambivalence as a critical part of the change process--since it is ultimately their decision whether to change or not. In this third video in the series Motivational Interviewing Step by Step, expert MI practitioner and trainer Cathy Cole conducts three full-length demonstration sessions where the focus is on fully exploring both sides of ambivalence. Extensive commentary and pre- and post-session interviews help viewers understand the strategies and guiding principles of MI. Jim has been offered a job promotion that would ease his family's financial struggles but require extensive travel. In her role as an EAP counselor, Cole guides Jim's exploration of his options and leads him into next steps, all the while maintaining her neutrality about his career decision. Holly has mixed feelings about when to stop breastfeeding her son. As a health educator, Cole skillfully provides information in a collaborative manner that reinforces Holly's autonomy and supports her in making a decision that's right for her. Kathy is reluctant to stop smoking but concerned about her health. Cole avoids the trap of trying to convince her to change, and strategically capitalizes on the subtle shift between "sustain talk" and "change talk" in order to help Kathy establish a change plan. By watching this video, you will be able to: learn MI strategies useful with clients stuck in ambivalence; recognize the difference between sustain talk and change talk; identify specific techniques used to reinforce change talk and move toward a change plan.

In Part One of The Voices of Violence Series, ten experts elucidate the root causes of violent behavior. They offer a probing look into the unsettling childhood experiences of violent offenders, examining the disturbed parent-child attachment styles, destructive thought processes, and distorted social perceptions that underlie violence. In addition to the expert commentary, riveting interviews with both incarcerated and rehabilitated offenders offer direct insight into the thinking that led to violent crimes.
