o An event triggers the beginning of the cycle (Beck 1964).
o The event triggers a thought in the students mind that generally comes unintentionally and automatically.
o Next there is an emotional response to the thought.
o Based on the thought and emotion, a behavior occurs.
The Cognitive Model
![Page 3: Cognitive Therapy With Youth The Schools Jody Lieske, PhD Licensed Pediatric Psychologist Children and Adolescent Clinic, P.C. Hastings, Nebraska](https://reader035.vdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022062517/56649f275503460f94c3e58e/html5/thumbnails/3.jpg)
The Cognitive Model
Situations themselves do not cause us to have certain feelings.
It is our thoughts about the situation that lead to the feelings.

ATs and images are the quick, evaluative thoughts and images that occur in response to outside events (Beck et al., 1979).
Can be positive or negative, helpful or unhelpful, accurate or inaccurate
Youth are not always aware of their automatic thoughts.
Automatic Thoughts
![Page 8: Cognitive Therapy With Youth The Schools Jody Lieske, PhD Licensed Pediatric Psychologist Children and Adolescent Clinic, P.C. Hastings, Nebraska](https://reader035.vdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022062517/56649f275503460f94c3e58e/html5/thumbnails/8.jpg)
1. Negative automatic thoughts and images often represent situations in which a person is assuming the worst, often with little or no evidence to support the assumption.
2. Permissive automatic thoughts and images are ideas a student has that allow or excuse behavior that would otherwise cause feelings of guilt or discomfort.
3. Coping thoughts and images help a person to handle difficult situations in a healthy way.
Three Common Categories of ATs
![Page 9: Cognitive Therapy With Youth The Schools Jody Lieske, PhD Licensed Pediatric Psychologist Children and Adolescent Clinic, P.C. Hastings, Nebraska](https://reader035.vdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022062517/56649f275503460f94c3e58e/html5/thumbnails/9.jpg)
Examples of ATs
Negative “I blew it.”
“He doesn’t want me anymore.”
“There’s no use trying.”
“She thinks I’m stupid.”
“I can’t do it.”
Permissive “I’ve earned it!”
“Just this once…”
“I held up my end of the bargain—it’s not my fault if they didn’t.”
“Everyone else does it, so I may as well.”
They blame me for it, so I may as well do it.”
![Page 10: Cognitive Therapy With Youth The Schools Jody Lieske, PhD Licensed Pediatric Psychologist Children and Adolescent Clinic, P.C. Hastings, Nebraska](https://reader035.vdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022062517/56649f275503460f94c3e58e/html5/thumbnails/10.jpg)
COPINGo “I will just do my best, and that will be enough.”
o “I am proud of myself for trying.”
o “No matter what, I can learn from this, and try again if I need to.”
o “Everyone makes mistakes.”
o “I may do even better than I expect!”
Examples of ATs

Errors in logical thinking Occur more frequently in persons who are in
emotional distress or have a psychiatric disorder than in people without emotional concerns (Beck, 1976)
Cognitive Errors
![Page 12: Cognitive Therapy With Youth The Schools Jody Lieske, PhD Licensed Pediatric Psychologist Children and Adolescent Clinic, P.C. Hastings, Nebraska](https://reader035.vdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022062517/56649f275503460f94c3e58e/html5/thumbnails/12.jpg)
Underlying beliefs are the way we understand ourselves, others, and the world around us. Automatic thoughts
are quick, evaluative thoughts that are informed by those underlying beliefs.
![Page 13: Cognitive Therapy With Youth The Schools Jody Lieske, PhD Licensed Pediatric Psychologist Children and Adolescent Clinic, P.C. Hastings, Nebraska](https://reader035.vdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022062517/56649f275503460f94c3e58e/html5/thumbnails/13.jpg)
The lens through which we see the world.
Often formed as a result of interaction between our genetic makeup and our early life experiences.
Intermediate and core
Underlying Beliefs
![Page 14: Cognitive Therapy With Youth The Schools Jody Lieske, PhD Licensed Pediatric Psychologist Children and Adolescent Clinic, P.C. Hastings, Nebraska](https://reader035.vdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022062517/56649f275503460f94c3e58e/html5/thumbnails/14.jpg)
A student’s internalized “rules” for how they think the world should work.
Rules are often framed as if-then statements. If one things happens, then it will lead to a
specific result (positive or negative).
Intermediate Beliefs
![Page 15: Cognitive Therapy With Youth The Schools Jody Lieske, PhD Licensed Pediatric Psychologist Children and Adolescent Clinic, P.C. Hastings, Nebraska](https://reader035.vdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022062517/56649f275503460f94c3e58e/html5/thumbnails/15.jpg)
The foundation of how we see ourselves, others, and the world (Beck et al., 1979)
Usually developed in childhood and based on experience
Usually related to beliefs about helplessness or unlovability
Core Beliefs
![Page 16: Cognitive Therapy With Youth The Schools Jody Lieske, PhD Licensed Pediatric Psychologist Children and Adolescent Clinic, P.C. Hastings, Nebraska](https://reader035.vdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022062517/56649f275503460f94c3e58e/html5/thumbnails/16.jpg)
Behaviors that students use to deal with their underlying beliefs and to live according to the “rules” of their world.
3 Categories: Maintaining strategies Opposing strategies Avoiding strategies
Compensatory Strategies
![Page 17: Cognitive Therapy With Youth The Schools Jody Lieske, PhD Licensed Pediatric Psychologist Children and Adolescent Clinic, P.C. Hastings, Nebraska](https://reader035.vdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022062517/56649f275503460f94c3e58e/html5/thumbnails/17.jpg)
Student 1: “Counseling may be helpful, but it may be a waste of time. I’ll give it a couple of sessions before I make a decision.”
Student 2: “Meeting with a counselor is a waste of time. She won’t get what I am going through and I’m missing art class.”
Student 3: “I really need some help. The counselor really helped Amy, so maybe she can help me.”
What would you guess that each is feeling?
![Page 18: Cognitive Therapy With Youth The Schools Jody Lieske, PhD Licensed Pediatric Psychologist Children and Adolescent Clinic, P.C. Hastings, Nebraska](https://reader035.vdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022062517/56649f275503460f94c3e58e/html5/thumbnails/18.jpg)
When a student’s distress is a reasonable reaction to a situation, rather than related to unhelpful or inaccurate thoughts and beliefs, we move to collaborative problem solving.
A decision point: Problem solving or intervention?
![Page 19: Cognitive Therapy With Youth The Schools Jody Lieske, PhD Licensed Pediatric Psychologist Children and Adolescent Clinic, P.C. Hastings, Nebraska](https://reader035.vdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022062517/56649f275503460f94c3e58e/html5/thumbnails/19.jpg)
A process in which the clinician asks questions in a manner that helps the student identify the problem, determine how to best respond to it, and in some cases, how to change the situation.
Collaborative Problem Solving
![Page 20: Cognitive Therapy With Youth The Schools Jody Lieske, PhD Licensed Pediatric Psychologist Children and Adolescent Clinic, P.C. Hastings, Nebraska](https://reader035.vdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022062517/56649f275503460f94c3e58e/html5/thumbnails/20.jpg)
Appropriate when: The student’s emotions are appropriate to the
situation. The student is in a situation that places them at
significant risk for harm. You and the student have checked the student’s
thought and it appears both accurate and useful. The student is functioning at a lower level and initially
finds it difficult to understand how the beliefs, thoughts, and behaviors relate to the problem.
Collaborative Problem Solving
![Page 21: Cognitive Therapy With Youth The Schools Jody Lieske, PhD Licensed Pediatric Psychologist Children and Adolescent Clinic, P.C. Hastings, Nebraska](https://reader035.vdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022062517/56649f275503460f94c3e58e/html5/thumbnails/21.jpg)
Identify the problem Think about possible solutions Choose a solution to try How well does it work?

Situation
• What happened around you just before you felt the way you did?
AT
• What thoughts went through your head?
Emotion
• What emotion(s) did you feel-in one word description?
Thought Record

Involves asking strategic questions to lead a student to a new perspective
Use Columbo approach (Selekman, 1993)
Guided Discovery

“What evidence do you have that the thought is true or untrue?”
“Is there another explanation?” “What is the impact or your believing this
thought?” “What should you do about it?” “If this happened to a friend, what would you
tell him or her?” “Is this thought helpful?”
Checking Thoughts
![Page 26: Cognitive Therapy With Youth The Schools Jody Lieske, PhD Licensed Pediatric Psychologist Children and Adolescent Clinic, P.C. Hastings, Nebraska](https://reader035.vdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022062517/56649f275503460f94c3e58e/html5/thumbnails/26.jpg)
“What is the worst thing that will happen?” “What is the best thing that could happen?” What is the most likely thing to happen?” “If the worst thing happened, could you deal
with it?”
Checking Anxious Thoughts
![Page 27: Cognitive Therapy With Youth The Schools Jody Lieske, PhD Licensed Pediatric Psychologist Children and Adolescent Clinic, P.C. Hastings, Nebraska](https://reader035.vdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022062517/56649f275503460f94c3e58e/html5/thumbnails/27.jpg)

Replacement thoughts are not just thinking a happy thought!
Help students develop thoughts that are believable and in their own words.
Changing Thoughts
![Page 29: Cognitive Therapy With Youth The Schools Jody Lieske, PhD Licensed Pediatric Psychologist Children and Adolescent Clinic, P.C. Hastings, Nebraska](https://reader035.vdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022062517/56649f275503460f94c3e58e/html5/thumbnails/29.jpg)
Is a skill or ability deficit is getting in the way?
Is the student not invested in therapy? Has the student developed some resistance? Are the concepts being explained in a way
that is too complex for the student?
Difficulties with Checking or Changing Thoughts
![Page 30: Cognitive Therapy With Youth The Schools Jody Lieske, PhD Licensed Pediatric Psychologist Children and Adolescent Clinic, P.C. Hastings, Nebraska](https://reader035.vdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022062517/56649f275503460f94c3e58e/html5/thumbnails/30.jpg)
Helps students to delve into the meaning of automatic thoughts, looking for underlying beliefs
Thoughts are a reflection of our beliefs about ourselves and the world
