What's the difference in Cognitive Therapy and basic Counseling with a Counselor?
Q. I am currently getting counseling with a general counselor for Panic Disorder. I am on Lexapro and Xanax, which i am reducing my dosage of (xanax only) to see how i do on just the lexapro. I am hearing more about Cognitive Therapy and am wondering what the difference really is. I am alot better since my panic attacks began in April, but am worried about coming off my meds. Any advice on the cognitive therapy?

A. Cognitive behavioral therapy is very good for changing your reactions to things and behaviors associated with your anxiety, where I feel that just talking to a counselor is trying to figure out the root of the anxiety itself. I prefer C.B.Therapy.

A. Cognitive and perceptual psychologists are usually trained as experimental psychologists. Therefore, you want to get into an experimental psychology graduate program which has a good cognitive focus. For starters, you will need to get your bachelor's degree in psychology. It would help if you could get an honours degree. It would also help to try and connect with a professor who is working in the cognitive / perceptual area. If you could become part of a research project as an undergrad, that would be great. You will then need to do a little research to find out what universities offer graduate degrees in cognitive / perceptual psychology. Look at some of the research in this area and see who is doing it and where they are based. … [cont.]

A. Children learn through play and exploring. make sure its things they are interested in to keep them focussed. Dont have the activities going on for a long period of time. Toddlers have short attention spans so of course they will get distracted if the activities are an hour long. For babies, have pictures for them to look at, stick one above the change table to they can see it while getting changed. Clear plastic lids, colour them, hang some string from them and hang from curtain rod so the sun catches them. Make shakers, put rice in a plastic bottle and also put other things in it like beads, glue the lid on. Sorting- colours, blocks, plastic animals, buttons.
