Regarding the perspective on human nature, CBT has a more complex view on this topic than other theories. The CBT perspective incorporates the use of self-control, self-reflection and the ability to choose (Tan,2011). The use of self-monitoring, self-reflection, and self-control are essential to creating changes in behaviors and feelings. Furthermore, more attention is being paid to how an individual's thoughts can influence his or her feelings and behaviors (Tan, 2011). This is important because a person's feelings and behaviors are driven primarily by their thoughts. Another aspect I like about CBT's perspective on human nature is that they see humans as neutral rather than good or bad. The idea of ​​"don't judge a book by its cover" comes to mind, meaning that the CBT perspective does not place labels on people, which is important for the client relationship. The main emphasis of the human nature perspective of CBT is placed on irrational thinking that causes emotional problems. By making a client think more rationally and improve their attitudes, it will improve the effect on their feelings and behaviors. When it comes to reality interpretation and personality development, I think CBT can improve a person's feelings in both of these areas. CBT places emphasis on how cognitions can influence a person's view of reality. In a way I agree. As stated earlier, a person's thoughts shape their feelings and behaviors. So, if a person has thoughts about reality, ideally their feelings and behaviors could reflect those thoughts. Regarding personality development, I also think that CBT can improve a person's personality development. For example, a person who has negative thoughts about someone, but...... middle of paper... Planning an activity that the client can participate in and complete can give them a sense of mastery over a specific task. This can be helpful for the customer to feel fulfilled. Another technique that I think can be useful in therapy is role playing. Role playing can be helpful for a client to learn to challenge irrational beliefs by becoming aware of negative feelings towards those beliefs (Tan, 2011). Additionally, role-playing can help the client overcome their emotions and practice more effective coping skills. The last technique I would incorporate into the therapy would be relaxation training. I would suggest ways that can help the client relax, including deep breathing, meditation, yoga, a massage, or exercise. Getting the client to have methods to relax, I think can help manage their thoughts, feelings and behaviors.
