Theories of Therapeutic Change

Theories of Therapeutic Change explain how therapy helps people improve and resolve issues. They suggest different mechanisms, such as developing insight into one’s problems, learning new coping skills, changing negative thought patterns, or improving relationships through support and understanding. Some theories emphasize that change occurs through the therapeutic relationship itself, while others focus on specific techniques or skills. Overall, these theories provide a framework for understanding how therapy can bring about personal growth and emotional well-being, guiding therapists in choosing effective approaches tailored to each individual’s needs.
