What Is Integrated Behavioral Health Care?

Integrated behavioral health (IBH) blends medical and behavioral health clinicians in a single setting. In this setting, these clinicians collaborate with patients to address their medical conditions and related behavioral health factors that can affect one’s health and well-being. This “whole-person care” is a rapidly emerging practice of high-quality health care.

Behavioral Therapy for Children

Behavioral therapy treatment teaches children methods of positively responding to various situations. Rewarding positive behavior is a central part of this therapy, and it’s on the parents to help reinforce this in their child’s day-to-day life. While all children can benefit from behavioral therapy, children with autism and ADHD have been shown to benefit the most. It’s common for children to take a while to warm up to and trust their counselor. Still, they will begin to realize that they can express themselves without consequences in time.

The Types of Behavioral Therapy

There are numerous types of behavioral therapy, from cognitive behavioral therapy to cognitive behavioral therapy play, systematic desensitization, and aversion therapy. Below, we’ve gone into further detail about each of these behavioral therapy types:

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy

This popular therapy combines behavioral therapy with cognitive therapy. Treatment often focuses on how thoughts and beliefs influence actions and moods. Long-term, this therapy type seeks to alter a person’s thinking and behavioral patterns to change them into healthier ones.

Cognitive-Behavioral Play Therapy

Commonly used with children, this type of therapy observes playing to gain insight into what one is uncomfortable expressing or unable to express. Play therapy can help improve a parent’s communication with their child.

Systematic Desensitization

This therapy type relies on classical conditioning and often treats phobias. During system desensitization, patients are taught to replace their fear responses to a phobia with relaxation responses, such as breathing techniques.

Aversion Therapy

This type of therapy is often used in treating problems like substance abuse and alcoholism. During aversion therapy, patients are taught to associate a desirable but unhealthy stimulus with an unpleasant stimulus, such as an unpleasant memory.
