Sandra wrote an article for her university journal on appropriate study habits. She spent a lot of time researching the information and was quite happy with the outcome. A week later, the article was sent back to Sandra quoting errors and mistakes that denied it from being published. As a result, Sandra threw away all copies of the article and refused to ever try this again. She even avoids taking classes that require essays and informative papers. What would be the best treatment for Sandra through direct practice?
Explanation
Answer - A - Cognitive therapy is a form of direct practice that involves helping clients develop skills in identifying distorted thinking, modifying beliefs, changing behaviors, and relating to others in different ways. Difficulties are overcome by identifying and changing emotional responses, behaviors, and dysfunctional thinking.
