- Summary:
- In this second session of six, Dr. Amy Wenzel demonstrates cognitive behavior therapy with a female client presenting with a gambling addiction, family relationship issues, and work-related stress. They spend a majority of this session discussing the client's gambling habit, which is her highest priority concern. After discussing the client's responses on questionnaires measuring symptoms of depression and anxiety and asking her about her gambling urges during the previous week, Dr. Wenzel helps the client explore the relationship between her fluctuating mood states and the likelihood that she acts on those urges. They also explore antecedents to her gambling habit and the feelings of guilt that arise during and after she succumbs to those urges. After she introduces and explains the difference between approach behavior and avoidance, Dr. Wenzel works with the client to develop a weekend schedule to help her combat boredom and avoidance, and ultimately cope with the urge to gamble. Dr. Wenzel continues to draw attention to the client's automatic thinking patterns, and concludes the session by assigning homework, which includes a new activity log for behavioral monitoring and a coping statement on the type of person she wants to be
