Discussion: Cognitive Behavioral Therapy: Family Settings Versus Individual 

                           Settings

Whether used with individuals or families, the goal of cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) is to modify client behavior. Although CBT for families is similar to CBT for individuals, there are significant differences in their applications. As you develop treatment plans, it is important that you recognize these differences and how they may impact your therapeutic approach with families. For this Discussion, as you compare the use of CBT for families and individuals, consider challenges of applying this therapeutic approach to your own client families.

· Review the media, Johnson Family Session 3, in this week’s Learning Resources 

   and consider the insights provided on CBT in family therapy.

1. Professional socialization relates to the manner in which we learn the roles and functions of being a nurse once we enter the healthcare system. What are some of the ways this socialization occurs in your place of employment, and do you believe it leads to effective assumption of the nursing role? This socialization occurs in a patriarchal healthcare system that still remains predominantly male physician-based. Discuss the impact, you believe, this has on socialization to the nursing role.

Communication is integral in the field of nursing. Nurses act as the hub of communication, relaying and interpreting information between physicians, caregivers, family members and patients. The ability to establish effective communication in nursing is imperative to providing the best care and patient outcomes possible (Bender, Williams, Su, & Hites, 2016). At any workplace, good communication is vital. Effective communication removes obstacles that detract from efficiency and collaboration. As a nurse executive, I should create the structure and processes that facilitate effective communication within in my team. To improve communication to and between team members, my focus would be improving both the content and the coverage of team members’ communication.

To begin with, I would provide role clarity at the workplace. One of the most effective structural ways to improve the content of communication within a team is to invest in role clarity (Marquis & Huston, 2017). It helps everyone on the team know from the beginning which content is most relevant to discuss with different team members. I would promote role clarity by explaining to each employee what metrics will be used to define success in their role. Another way of enhancing communication is by creating an open door policy. This would encourage free communication by removing any potential barriers.

Empowering team members would enable them have the authority or power to execute certain functions. Additionally, empowering people also makes them more confident, for instance, in decision-making (Marquis & Huston, 2017). One major way in which I would empower my team members is by including them in the decision-making process of our healthcare organization. Through this inclusion, their views are likely to be heard by a higher authority.
