Comparison of cognitive behavioral approach and logotherapy in social work within the outlie of drug abuse

Stanislava Ševčíková

Abstract:
The aim of the following text is to compare the logotherapy of V. Frankl and the cognitive-behavioural therapy and to outline the possibility of its further use in the therapy of drug abuse. To begin with, the author is trying to identify in detail the main components of both theories and to find evidence for the implicite statement that the balancing of some weak points of one theory consists in finding the virtues of the other theory. Both theories thus could, if applied appropriately, be used in a complementary way, or at least, simultaneously or subsequently.
