What Is Behavioral Therapy?
The basis of this therapeutic approach is rooted in behaviorism, emphasizing the impact of the environment, stimuli, and experiences on an individual’s behavior and cognition. Behavioral therapy posits that functional disturbances stem from conditioned responses to stimuli. As such, therapy focuses on understanding and modifying these learned behaviors to alleviate neurotic tendencies, negative reactions to specific stimuli, and disturbances in self-perception or worldview.
