I refer to how I use reality therapy. The book What Are You Doing? is a collection of case histories by 24 certified reality therapists and shows different ways reality therapists use the same techniques. But the basic concepts, including the steps, are always the same. The first part of Step One is "make friends. " This is often the most misunderstood step of reality therapy.

  • Reality Therapy Counseling
    COUNSELING SKILLS AND TECHNIQUES 6. REALITY THERAPY COUNSELING 6.1. Introduction to Reality Therapy Reality therapy (RT) is an approach to psychotherapy and counseling. Developed by William Glasser in the 1960s, RT differs from conventional psychiatry, psychoanalysis and medical model schools of psychotherapy in that it focuses on what Glasser calls psychiatry's three Rs: realism, responsibility, and right-and- wrong, rather than symptoms of mental disorders. Reality therapy maintains that the individual is suffering from a socially universal human condition rather than a mental illness. It is in the unsuccessful attainment of basic needs that a person's behavior moves away from the norm. Since fulfilling essential needs is part of a person's present life, reality therapy does not concern itself with a client's past. Neither does this type of therapy deal with unconscious mental processes. In these ways reality therapy is very different from other forms of psychotherapy. The reality therapy approach to counseling and problem-solving focuses on the here-and-now actions of the client and the ability to create and choose a better future. Typically, clients seek to discover what they really want and how they are currently choosing to behave in order to achieve these goals. According to Glasser, the social component of psychological disorders has been highly overlooked in the rush to label the population as sick or mentally ill. Reality therapy attempts to separate the client from the behavior. Just because someone is experiencing distress resulting from a social problem does not make him sick, it just makes him out of sync with his psychological needs.

(Received: 23 Aug 2015; Revised: 3 Sep 2015; Accepted: 20 Sep 2015) Abstract Introduction: One of the main problems of chronic patients, especially patients with Multiple Sclerosis (MS), is negative emotion. The purpose of this study was to investigate the effectiveness of group reality therapy in reducing stress, anxiety and depression in patients with multiple sclerosis (MS). Methods: A total of 40 patients with MS at the Multiple Sclerosis Society of Iran were selected and randomly divided into two groups of experimental and control (N=20 subjects). All participants before and after the intervention to scale DASS-21 responded. The experimental group received eight sessions of reality therapy and the control group received no intervention. The data of pre-test and post-test were analyzed using descriptive and inferential statistics (analysis of covariance). Results: Findings showed a significant reduction in the mean of the three variables of stress (F (1.38) = 81.37; p < 0.01) anxiety (F (1.38) = 81.89; p < 0.01) and depression (F (1.38) = 82.56; P < 0.01) in the experimental group after the intervention (p < 0.05) Conclusion: in this study group reality therapy significantly reduces stress, anxiety and depression in the intervention group compared with the control group.

  • Virtual Reality As Therapy for Pain Itʼs More Than a Distraction, Researchers Say
    PERSONAL HEALTH Virtual Reality as Therapy for Pain Itʼs more than a distraction, researchers say. Itʼs more like a brain hack that occupies the brain so fully that it has no room to process pain sensations at the same time. By Jane E. Brody April 29, 2019 I was packing up at the end of a family vacation in Florida when my back went into an excruciating spasm unrelieved by a fistful of pain medication. As my twin sons, then 8 years old, wheeled me through the airport, one of them suggested, “Mom, if you think about something else, it won’t hurt so much.” At the time, I failed to appreciate the wisdom of his advice. Now, four decades later, a sophisticated distraction technique is being used to help patients of all ages cope with pain, both acute and chronic. The method, called Virtual Reality Therapy, goes beyond simple distraction, as might result from watching television. Rather, it totally immerses the patient in an entertaining, relaxing, interactive environment that so occupies the brain, it has no room to process pain sensations at the same time. “It’s not just a distraction — it’s like an endogenous narcotic providing a physiological and chemical burst that causes you to feel good,” said Jeffrey I. Gold, director of the pediatric pain management clinic at Children’s Hospital Los Angeles. “It’s different from reading a book or playing with a toy. It’s a multisensory experience that engages a person’s attention on a much deeper level.” Virtual Reality Therapy is the new kid on the block for pain management, now gradually growing in use as the opioid epidemic continues to soar and the price of the needed equipment has plummeted.

  • The Use of the Labyrinth in Logotherapy: a Holistic Approach to Meaning Discovery
    Running head: USE OF THE LABYINRTH IN LOGOTHERAPY 1 The use of the labyrinth in Logotherapy: A holistic approach to meaning discovery Chad Thompson, Hadidja Nyiransekuye, George A. Jacinto [Institutional Affiliation(s)] Author Note [Include any grant/funding information and a complete correspondence address.] USE OF THE LABYINRTH IN LOGOTHERAPY 2 Abstract This paper discusses use of the labyrinth in association with Logotherapy. Logotherapy, and its focus on finding meaning and purpose in life, has great potential for use with clients’ therapy issues using the finger labyrinth. A literature review explores the existing literature regarding the use of the finger labyrinth in psychotherapy with clients. A brief overview of the process of Logotherapy is presented, and the phases of labyrinth work in conjunction with Logotherapy are described. A case example that outlines the stages for use of Logotherapy and the labyrinth is presented. Finally, the conclusion reflects on the implications for the use of the labyrinth as part of Logotherapy in clinical practice. Keywords: Logotherapy, Meaning Therapy, Meaning in Life, Finger Labyrinth, Therapy using the Finger Labyrinth USE OF THE LABYINRTH IN LOGOTHERAPY 3 Finger walking is a holistic approach to use of the labyrinth that complements the dimensions of Logotherapy. Logotherapy focuses on the search for meaning and purpose in the present moment of an individual’s life (Frankl,2014b). Frankl succinctly observed: “For the meaning of life differs from man to man, from day to day and from hour to hour. What matters, therefore, is not the meaning of life in general but rather the specific meaning of a person’s life at a given moment” (Frankl, 2014b, p.
