Behavior Therapy, What It Is and How I Did It by Steven Holborn – Wednesday, Feb 12, 7 p.m.

Join us on 

 at 7 PM for the UU Humanist Forum

Humanism stresses the human capacity for reason and compassion. The speaker at the February Forum, Steven Holborn, a retired psychology professor at the University of Manitoba, will apply these concepts in his presentation BEHAVIOR THERAPY: WHAT IT IS AND HOW I DID IT. 

His presentation will focus on:
➢    Describing and distinguishing behavior therapy and applied behavior analysis;
➢    Introducing basic behavioral terms, concepts, and principles plus clarifying common misconceptions;
➢    Describing behavioral assessment and distinguishing it from traditional psychological and psychiatric assessment;
➢    Identifying methods of behavioral assessment
➢    Using every-day examples, and anonymous case examples from my clinical files, to illustrate the value of a behavioral approach
➢    Cases may include problems with phobias; obsessive compulsive disorder; insomnia; headaches; hallucinations; oral hygiene; behavioral problems of children in primary schools, etc.

These forums provide humanist perspectives on various thought-provoking topics which foster open-minded discussions and intellectual exploration, encouraging critical thinking and reflection.

Refreshments will be provided. We hope to see you there!
