As a non-disease-based psychotherapy, C-CTherapy® is designed to engage aberrant human behaviour. This non- cognitive therapy provides the patient with a mental health skill for neutralizing his inadvertent production of negative emotional material, all of which originates from the non-volitional division of functioning mentality.
Disease-model, cognitive theory is not employed, or indeed, is it related to a non- counselling C-CTherapy® treatment design; nor are any of the therapies based upon an "understanding why" — study, diagnosis, treatment — approach.
A physician-diagnosed case treated by a non-medical, systems-based model illustrates the differences between the medical, symptom-based model and the human behavior model in the treatment of mental health cases.
Empirical data emanating from three short-term treatment cases applying "Counter-Conditioning Therapy®" is presented. Each example is selected at random from a clinical pool of 500 short-term therapy patients from 1980 to 1992.
C-CTherapy® treatment focuses upon how the patient experiences his surroundings not on theories about human behaviour. C-CTherapy® deals with how people actually function, not on conjecture about why they behave as they do.
Can we be held emotionally hostage by an earlier - or even recent — event or trauma? Today trauma counselors rush to plane crashes, shootings, fires, earthquakes — disasters — to get victims to talk about what they saw, what they heard, and what they felt.
This paper offers a clinical definition of sensitivity and describes the role of this human characteristic in the mental health treatment of women. Material is taken from the author’s 3 decades of research and clinical work using C-CTherapy®.
This monograph takes as its point of departure the medical treatment of Schizophrenia. It identifies the common denominator afflicting these patients as insistent, compelling thought-voices. A non-medical, non-volitional unified treatment design is touched upon regarding the patient’s capacity to combat his self-victimization.
