INTERVENTION
Behavioral Interventions – in clinical care are those activities delivered by primary care clinicians and related health
care staff to assist patients in adopting, changing or maintaining behaviors proven to affect health outcomes and
health status.
Affective Interventions – these kinds of interventions focus on a patient’s feelings. With effective interventions,
patients who grapple with overly strong feelings can identify and express those emotions properly, and learn how to
manage them. In one exercise, therapists can give patients a list of various emotions (fear, anger, happiness, etc.)
and ask them to take an inventory of the predominant feelings experienced over a particular period of time.
Cognitive Interventions - This type of psychological intervention is geared toward those people who are too caught up in their
own thoughts, specifically negative or erroneous ones. Troublesome thought patterns can dictate a person’s actions and how they
live their lives, and therefore take away a person’s own agency. In these cases, it is imperative to replace those negative thoughts
with positive ones that can transform a patient’s beliefs, self-image, and outlook on life. In essence, these thoughts govern every
aspect of a patient’s life—thoughts, feelings and actions.
