The Therapeutic Relationship

In the nominated chapter, Bohart and Tallman (2010) discuss the customer and the influence they have on treatment. They believe that customer and pre-treatment effects are the most important factors in determining treatment outcome. In fact, up to 87% of differences in treatment outcome may be due to differences in customers, non-treatment factors, and unknown causes (Bohart & Tallman, 2010, p. 84). Bohart and Tallman further believe that about 40% of the variance is due to client factors and only 13% can be accounted for by treatment (eg, treatment relationship, intervention, therapist, therapy model).

The therapeutic relationship has long been considered as one of the most important elements in psychotherapy. Currently, the value of cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) and therapeutic relationships is gaining increasing attention in literature and research. In this article, I will explain case studies to support the value of the therapeutic relationship when working from the CBT approach. When I used the case of Noluthando 'si, I found that there are many factors I decided to use it as a case study. My first concern was working with young people when I first started using Noluthando's lawsuit. When I enter a psychology occupation, I think working with young people is a specialized field I might want to work for. This case supports this belief. CBT is the cure I am using.

In the past CBT, as described by Giovazolias (2004), the value of the therapeutic relationship between the therapist and the client was not regarded as an important factor influencing the change. The value depends on the technology. Therapeutic relationships are thought to be a by-product of what just happened as part of the process, but technology is the most important part of the treatment and focuses on the beliefs of automatic thinking and dysfunction and the customer's own reorganization We are aligning. Beck, Rush, Shaw, and Emery (1979) are paying attention to the therapeutic features of warmth, practical and accurate empathy, and how these features are needed. The quality of treatment is considered a means of providing space for CBT technology. Therefore, this suggests that treatment relationships are not considered to have important implications.
