lemme start with few specific ones here:
- assertiveness training- a component of cognitive behavioral therapy aimed at enhancing social skills and therefore best utilized for "social phobia"
- exposure and cognitive therapy along with group therapy are best utilized for PTSD
- psychodynamic psychotherapy - improves image of self and better adpats the person to deal with stressors in life - utilized for adjustment disorder
- cognitive psychotherapy - utilized for all somatoform disorders
