Behavioral activation theory indicates that much clinically
relevant human behavior is a function of positive reinforcement,
and that when positive reinforcement is reduced, lost, or
chronically low depression results. Behavioral activation
encourages clients to obtain and nurture the skills that allow them
to establish and maintain contact with diverse, stable sources of
positive reinforcement. This creates a life of meaning, value and
purpose. Behavioral Activation: Distinctive Features clarifies the
fundamental theoretical and practical features of behavioral
activation, integrating various techniques into a unified whole
that is efficient and effective. The book includes numerous case
examples and transcribed segments from therapy sessions and
outlines behavioral concepts using straightforward terms and
examples so that all therapists can see the utility and practical
value of this approach. This book will provide essential guidance
for students and new therapists, as well as more experienced
clinicians wanting to know more about what makes behavioral
activation a distinct form of cognitive behavior therapy.
