Person Centred (PCA) and Behavioural Therapy

Major social work theories and approaches
Systems Theory: Views individuals as part of a larger system, such as a family,
community, or society. It helps social workers identify the various factors
and relationships that influence a person's life and behavior.

Psychosocial Development Theory: Developed by Erik Erikson, this theory
proposes that personality develops in a series of eight stages from infancy
to old age. Each stage involves a psychosocial crisis that must be resolved,
such as the conflict between trust and mistrust in infancy.

Social Learning Theory: Based on the work of Albert Bandura, this theory
suggests that people learn behaviors by observing others and the
consequences of their actions. It emphasizes the importance of
modeling, reinforcement, and a reciprocal relationship between people
and their environment.

Rational Choice Theory: Proposes that people make decisions by
rationally weighing the costs and benefits to achieve a desired outcome.
This theory helps social workers understand client choices, even those
that may seem irrational to outsiders, by analyzing the client's perception
of risks and rewards.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT): A practical, evidence-based approach
that focuses on the connection between thoughts, feelings, and behaviors.
Social workers use CBT to help clients identify and change negative
or irrational thought patterns to improve their emotional
well-being and behavior.

Conflict Theory: This theory views society as being in a state of perpetual
conflict due to social and economic inequalities. It is used to address
systemic issues like poverty, racism, and discrimination by focusing on
power dynamics and social justice.

Strengths Perspective: An approach that focuses on a client's strengths,
assets, and resources rather than just their problems and weaknesses.
It aims to empower clients and help them build on what works well in
their lives.

Crisis Intervention Theory: Guides social workers in helping individuals
and families navigate traumatic events, such as natural disasters or loss.
It provides a framework for providing immediate support and coping
strategies to help people manage stress and begin healing.
