[Motivation and emotional disorders: a cognitive science approach. II: Strategies for intervention].
In this paper, a Cognitive Science theory of motivational cognitive and emotional processes is applied to clinical psychology. We are demonstrating that a dynamic view of psychiatric disturbances and diagnoses can be derived from this theory (part I). In part II it is shown that-as a by-product-the theory allows to classify from a neutral "meta-perspective" different psychotherapeutic approaches in treating motivational and emotional disturbances (e.g., classical behaviour therapy, cognitive psychotherapy, client centered therapy, medical treatments, creative therapies and psychoanalysis). This is illustrated by theoretical analyses and a clinical example. We are intending to contribute to a deeper dialogue between the different psychotherapeutic schools in understanding in detail the communalities and the differences of some psychotherapeutic approaches.
