Colaborative Therapy Model
This was the first time taking the exam. I scored a 38%, which was rather poor. I felt that the questions were straight forward but there is one question that I had answered wrong. The question is:
Beth and Paul come to counseling because Beth feels that after two years of marriage she and Paul have nothing in common. She said that for the past six months she has been complaining to Paul that there are problems with their relationship. Paul states that he doesn’t think there are problems; he feels his wife is just overreacting.
Which therapeutic model would directly confront Paul's pathologizing of Beth as problematic?
A Milan-Systemic Model
B Narrative Model
C Feminist model
D Structural Model (Family Solutions, 2017).

is B: Narrative Model. The therapist could have understood both of their “theories” in a non-confronting way. But when I look on the answer, the correct answer is “C – the Feminist model”. Feminist Family Therapist tend to challenge traditional family roles by questioning gender roles and their stereotyping and how their roles have been affected by the family (Family Solutions, 2017).
Feminist therapists move from blame from an individual person to their socialization process with special emphasis on validating their experience (Keeling, 2010).
As a student therapist, I would have also used Collaborative Therapy to try to understand the client better.
During this exam, I thought that I did well for the first time. I need to review the people that developed the different theories.
During this exam, it is important that you read the questions thoroughly, understanding every word in each question. Once read the description in why the answer is wrong, it makes sense in why the question was answered incorrectly.
My plan is to continue to study who developed what theory. Make flash cards, and study the theories and who developed them. There were one or two theories that I do not remember studying, so I would need to get more information on those theories. It will take some work on my part. My plan is to take some time and review the theories and who created those theories.
I plan on studying the techniques that are used on the theories that I need to study more on. For example, I need to study the techniques that are used on Emotional Therapy. I also need to study the HIPAA laws and rules. I also need to study Milan’s Model of Therapy. To do this, I would just need to practice, watch YouTube videos, and maybe read a book that would give me more information on the
theory.
