Theory and Practice of Logic-Based Therapy: Integrating Critical Thinking and Philosophy Into Psychotherapy
by Elliot D Cohen
The New Rational Therapy: Thinking Your Way to Serenity, Success, and Profound Happiness
by Elliot D Cohen
A paper that shows how the work of a philosopher/s can be used to construct a philosophical antidote to one of the irrational rules of reasoning discussed in class
and/or your readings--demanding perfection ("metaphysical insecurity"), awfulizing, damnation (global, self, others), etc. Or a paper that applies the five logic-based
steps in dealing with a behavioral and/or emotional problem. Show how the emotion can be identified; the premises of emotional reasoning can be constructed; irrational
premises can be identified and refuted; philosophy can be used to construct potent antidotes; and how willpower can be cultivated and used to overcome the
behavioral/emotional problem.
