Some theorists combine behavioural techniques with cognitive therapy techniques, such as thought restructuring. ... When we reduce things strictly to stimulus and
response, we can easily forget that there are human feelings, thoughts, and
cognitions that are involved in the expression of a behavior as well. ... Because Roger has such
natural talent in music and does find it easy to write songs as well as
enjoyable to play guitar, a therapist might want to consider addressing that
possibility in therapy. ... While behaviorism is certainly an
effective method of understanding and changing behavior, it simply does not
take into account causes that may continue to affect an organism even after
successful therapy has taken place. ... A behaviorist might be
able to change, add or subtract a stimulus to alter a behavior, but only a
cognitive therapist or other type of therapist would be capable of giving a
client his own tools to deal with stimuli which are out of his or her control.
