NCMHCE Theories and Techniques (100+) Questions WithVerified Answers 2024/2025
1. Adlerian Therapy-"Acting As If": This is a form of encouraging and motivating
clients to be the way they desire to be, "acting as if" the transition has already
occurred.
2. Adlerian Therapy-"Analysis and Assessment": This technique is about explo-
ration of the family constellation (sociogram of the individuals at home during the
client's formative years) and early recollections and is not about interpretations to
the client.
3. Adlerian Therapy-Confrontation: This is used by therapists to encourage client
responsibility, looking at issues of taking responsibility for how others respond ("Why
does my child yell at me?" "Because you allow him to. It is easier to give into a
tantruming 8 year old than to bet the parent."), presenting existing alternatives ("You
don't have to work 3 jobs to bankroll your capable 28 - year - old. You can set limits
and refuse to be taken advantage of. What do you want to do about it?"), taking
responsibility for change ("Shall we continue to talk about this or do you want to take
action?"), and considering time ("Knowing what you know now, how long to you plan
to wait to take action? Five years?")
4. Adlerian Therapy-Encouragment: Having the client be an active participant in
treatment helps the individual begin to see themselves as capable.
5. Adlerian Therapy-Exploration of Social Dynamics: At the core, the therapist
believes the client's issues are primarily social in nature.
6. Adlerian Therapy-Exploration of the family constellation: In this theory, birth
order, sibling interaction, parent interactions and the client's sense of their psycho-
logical position in the family are important to enhance insight about how the client
has selected life-style. Family constellation is not limited to the immediate family,
but rather to those present at home during the formative time of the client.In this
theory, birth order, sibling interaction, parent interactions and the client's sense of
their psychological position in the family are important to enhance insight about how
the client has selected life-style. Family constellation is not limited to the immediate
family, but rather to those present at home during the formative time of the client.
7. Adlerian Therapy-Push - Button Technique: This is designed to help the client
see they are responsible for how they feel, both good and bad feelings. The client is
asked to visualize a happy event, re - experience the associated feelings, then an
unhappy event and the associated feelings, and finally to return to the happy event,
re - experiencing the happier feelings.
,8. Adlerian Therapy-Reporting of the earliest recollections: The therapist asks
the client to describe their earliest recollections, which often provide insight into the
patterns or interpretations the client has made in developing their life style.
9. Adlerian Therapy-Task-Setting: The client is given various tasks in their lives to
assume responsibility for their own lives. Adler advised a client that he could be free
, of depression in 2 weeks if he followed the specific task plan of thinking daily of
how to please another, with all of Adler's efforts aimed toward increasing the client's
social interests.
10. Behavioral Therapy-Activity Scheduling: This is useful in the treatment of
depression. This is done with a chart using short word descriptions (one to three
words), according to a hierarchy of easiest to hardest, including both necessary
and enjoyable tasks. The client is to follow the planned activities and document any
activities that were not pre-planned each week, rating the activities according to level
of pleasure, until the client has resumed his/or her normal schedule.
11. Behavioral Therapy-Assertiveness and Social Skills Training: This involves
the teaching of specific skills and tools to enable the client to act and interact
with greater success. The mechanism for this is often modeling, role-playing, and
behavioral rehearsal.
12. Behavioral Therapy-Behavioral Extinction: A therapy technique where the
client's rewards are removed to stop an undesirable behavior
13. Behavioral Therapy-Behavioral Observation: This technique involves objec-
tifying a specific behavior and observing the behavior in the client's natural environ-
ment. This is most common in institutional settings, such as hospitals, schools, or
treatment centers, where the clinician or others who can be trained as observers (i.e.
parents, teachers, aids, nurses) are present and can count or objectively observe
and analyze the data.
14. Behavioral Therapy-Biofeedback: The client is given feedback about what
brain waves, sympathetic nervous system (i.e. heart rate, blood pressure, muscle
tension) are doing to engage a relaxation response by the client through providing
feedback to the client through visual or auditory means.
15. Behavioral Therapy-Chaining: Involves the series of smaller behaviors that
are linked to the desired complex behavior. Each step is prompted and reinforced,
strengthening all of the parts of the chain that move toward the desired behavior.
16. Behavioral Therapy-Diversion: When anxious, a classic technique is to help
divert one's attention from anxiety, both in the short -term and in the long-term.
Longer term examples are things like physical activity and hobbies, and shorter term
examples are focusing on the immediate worlds around you (counting the bricks in
the wall, looking for individuals wearing green or with red hair, inventing stories about
the people around you), or working a puzzle.
17. Behavioral Therapy-Exposure Therapy: This is a technique targeted for anxi-
ety disorders involving exposure of the client to the feared object or the feared situ-
ation without any danger and for the purpose of overcoming their anxiety response.
18. Behavioral Therapy-Graded Task Assignment: This Technique breaks larger
tasks down into smaller, 'baby steps' and may be easily combined with Activity
