Cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) can be applied in both family and individual settings. While there are some similarities, such as both utilizing a single therapist and occurring in a confidential environment, there are also differences. Family CBT focuses on improving relationships both within and outside the family, involves members with familial ties, and creates contingencies to reinforce changes. Individual CBT focuses solely on the individual client and their external relationships. Counselors may face challenges with family CBT, such as difficulty evaluating effectiveness and ignoring individual family member issues.

Week 6: Foundations of Group Work and Types of Groups
And as participants improve, the group as a whole benefits. Members can be agents of change for each other. Seeing others' progress can help group members realize they, too, can cope and feel better.
—Dr. Nina W. Brown, “Power in Numbers”
Group therapy can be very beneficial for clients. In fact, research has shown that for many clients, group therapy is as effective as individual therapy. Members of groups are not only able to influence change within each other, but they are often able to more easily relate to the guidance of peers than that of a therapist. With the increasing popularity of this therapeutic approach, it is essential for you to have a strong foundation in psychotherapeutic techniques for groups.
This week, as you explore group therapy, you consider how you might apply current literature to your own clinical practice. You also examine your own practicum experiences involving group therapy sessions.

Research Proposal on Couples Counseling
Social Work Practice Research I (SOCW - 6301 - 3)
Introduction
This research proposal is about undertaking research to find the best therapy method for couples between individual, group, and couples therapy. The proposal will detail the findings of past researchers and will occasionally focus on the therapy methods in the context of a couple that is experiencing conflict mainly based on the rejection of their same-sex marriage by their respective families. It will also detail the methodologies used by other researchers in investigating the therapy methods. The study will reveal the most recommended therapy method and the variations of the method.
Research Problem and Question
Many couples quarrel because their respective families reject their union or relationship or marriage. Most of the affected couples are those whose respective families are deeply divided on the basis of religion, race/ethnicity and socio-economic status. However, some families just oppose relationships because they threaten their traditions, which are mostly rooted on religion. Some families oppose gay or lesbian relationships or marriages. Even when a family member reveals that he or she may attracted to a member of the opposite sex, the other family members may rise up against that family member. It may make teenagers and young adults hide about their sexual orientation. The stigmatization may be too unbearable for the affected individuals, who may choose to go into seclusion and engage in suicidal actions. There are couples like Kathleen and Lisa who courageously seek the help of therapists. Upon setting a stage for positive development, couples can ease the tension in the mind. They can open up to people and feel ready to solve problems together. The question that comes in mind in light of these facts is: What it the true impact of sexual orientation-based rejection by family members on a relationship? How can a social worker help couples overcome sexual orientation-based rejection by family members on a relationship? The research question of the study is: which between individual, group, and couples therapy is the best therapy method for couples?
Literature Review on Individual, Group, and Couples Therapy
The therapeutic alliance concept is mainly associated with individual psychotherapy, particularly in literature. Yet, the concept is increasingly used together within the marital and family therapy domains. According to Pinsof and Catherall (1986), “a systemic perspective is brought to bear on the concept within individual psychotherapy. A new, integrative definition of the alliance is presented that conceptualizes individual, couple and family therapy as occurring within the same systemic framework”. The authors examined family, couple and individual therapy and used some methodologies and deve ...

June 3, 2024 Anti-Semitism Letter Sent to MIT President Kornbluth and MIT Cor...Levi Shapiro
Letter from the Congress of the United States regarding Anti-Semitism sent June 3rd to MIT President Sally Kornbluth, MIT Corp Chair, Mark Gorenberg
Dear Dr. Kornbluth and Mr. Gorenberg,
The US House of Representatives is deeply concerned by ongoing and pervasive acts of antisemitic
harassment and intimidation at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT). Failing to act decisively to ensure a safe learning environment for all students would be a grave dereliction of your responsibilities as President of MIT and Chair of the MIT Corporation.
This Congress will not stand idly by and allow an environment hostile to Jewish students to persist. The House believes that your institution is in violation of Title VI of the Civil Rights Act, and the inability or
unwillingness to rectify this violation through action requires accountability.
Postsecondary education is a unique opportunity for students to learn and have their ideas and beliefs challenged. However, universities receiving hundreds of millions of federal funds annually have denied
students that opportunity and have been hijacked to become venues for the promotion of terrorism, antisemitic harassment and intimidation, unlawful encampments, and in some cases, assaults and riots.
The House of Representatives will not countenance the use of federal funds to indoctrinate students into hateful, antisemitic, anti-American supporters of terrorism. Investigations into campus antisemitism by the Committee on Education and the Workforce and the Committee on Ways and Means have been expanded into a Congress-wide probe across all relevant jurisdictions to address this national crisis. The undersigned Committees will conduct oversight into the use of federal funds at MIT and its learning environment under authorities granted to each Committee.
• The Committee on Education and the Workforce has been investigating your institution since December 7, 2023. The Committee has broad jurisdiction over postsecondary education, including its compliance with Title VI of the Civil Rights Act, campus safety concerns over disruptions to the learning environment, and the awarding of federal student aid under the Higher Education Act.
• The Committee on Oversight and Accountability is investigating the sources of funding and other support flowing to groups espousing pro-Hamas propaganda and engaged in antisemitic harassment and intimidation of students. The Committee on Oversight and Accountability is the principal oversight committee of the US House of Representatives and has broad authority to investigate “any matter” at “any time” under House Rule X.
• The Committee on Ways and Means has been investigating several universities since November 15, 2023, when the Committee held a hearing entitled From Ivory Towers to Dark Corners: Investigating the Nexus Between Antisemitism, Tax-Exempt Universities, and Terror Financing. The Committee followed the hearing with letters to those institutions on January 10, 202

MD.Cognitive Behavioral Therapy: Family Settings Versus Individual Settings.Cognitive
Behavioral TherapyComparing the use of CBT in family settings versus individual
settingsCognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) is a psychotherapeutic approach that is applied
in psychiatric care. In fact, it is a tool that makes use of talk therapy to guide clients in
changing their emotions, behavior and thoughts. As a psychotherapy tool, CBT is applicable
to a wide range of settings that includes family and individual settings (American
Psychiatric Association, 2013). Its use in the two settings (family and individual settings)
reveals some similarities and differences. Four similarities can be identified in CBT use
within the two settings. The first similarity is that the two engage the services of a single
therapist who acts as a moderator for each CBT session. The implication is that clients who
attend the same session in both family and individual therapies are considered as a single
unit in as far as the treatment is concerned. The second similarity is that the two settings
allow the clients to talk to the therapist. The third similarity is that the two settings engage
the services of a therapist who acts as a guide for the clients to achieve the desired
treatment outcomes. This requires that the therapist to apply professional knowledge of
CBT to guide each therapy session. The fourth similarity is that the CBT sessions occur
within a trusted environment where the clients are encouraged to make disclosures
intended to facilitate recovery. Confidentiality is emphasized in each treatment session with
the clients assured that the information they disclose will be kept confidential and not
transmitted to a third party unless with the client’s express permission (Nichols, 2014;
Wheeler, 2014).Cognitive Behavioral Therapy: Family Settings Versus Individual
Settings.There are four differences between CBT application in the two settings. The first
difference is that family settings focuses on improving relationships with those who attend
the sessions as well as persons outside the sessions while individual setting focuses
building better relationships with those outside the session. The second difference is that
family settings have members with familial ties while individual therapy only has a single
client per session. The third difference is that the decision to undertake CBT for the whole
family is typically made by a single family member who is a position of authority. The
members not in a position of authority will infrequently refer themselves and other family
3. members for CBT. The fourth difference is that the family setting creates adequate
contingencies with reinforcement that brings about generalizable and enduring changes.
The family members who are part of the CBT have regular interactions that influence
therapy. This is unlike individual therapy where the therapeutic interactions are typically
restricted to the therapy sessions with no adequate contingences or reinforcement (Nichols,
2014; Wheeler, 2014).Challenges counselors might encounter when using CBT in family
settingUsing CBT in the family setting can cause psychotherapists to face two challenges.
Firstly, it is difficult to evaluate CBT results and effectiveness. In fact, this is an
acknowledged challenge that is typically addressed through complementing CBT with other
treatment approaches/tools. The second challenge is that CBT ignores the issues affecting
individual family members and focuses on the issues affecting the whole family. The result
is that treatment effectiveness is reduced as the underlying issue causing problems in the
family is likely to be ignored. This challenge can be addressed through creating
opportunities for all family members to express their opinions and concerns thus ensuring
effective inclusion (American Nurses Association, 2014). Cognitive Behavioral Therapy:
