And in a SEPARATE paragraph can you respond to Nathaniel Kelly please thank you! 

Good day, Five behavioral and cognitive therapy concepts are classical conditioning, operant conditioning, vicarious learning, cognitive schema, and rule-governed behavior. 1) Classical conditioning refers to the conditioned stimulus (CS), the unconditioned stimulus (US), the unconditioned response (UR), and the conditioned response (CR). In therapy, classical conditioning can be utilized for past trauma victims or patients with post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD) to assist them in navigating their emotions after the traumatic incident. 2) Operant conditioning is a form of learning that strengthens behaviors based on external rewards. Therapeutic use of operant conditioning is when a client opens up about past traumas. In turn, the therapist informs the client of how important and valuable it is to reveal such information, thus reinforcing the client’s behavior to reveal more information. 3) Vicarious learning is the act of learning through the observation of others. Vicarious learning can be used with a client with agoraphobia by showing the client that their perceived phobia is irrational. 4) Cognitive schema is an individual’s perception of the world/society that influences their mental processes—utilizing cognitive schema demonstrates a client’s distorted views of their reality. 5) Rule-governed behavior is learning through hearing and reading information without ever experiencing it. A therapist can utilize this concept by assisting clients in desensitizing them to phobias. Thank you, Nathan Kelly
