Answer:

The therapy that could help Ernestine overcome her fear of elevators is Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT)

Explanation:

CBT is very useful in treating such anxiety disorders. The three steps involved in CBT are

  • Identifying the negative thought
  • Challenging the negative thought
  • Replacing negative thoughts with more realistic ones.

So a therapist that is working with Ernestine would probably ask her why she is scared of going into the elevator. Ernestine may answer that when she enters an elevator she gets dizzy and thinks she will die. She has identified the negative thought.

Her therapist would instruct her to challenge the negative thought. Has she ever felt dizzy and died when inside an elevator? No. That's challenging the negative thought.

Then replacing it with more realistic thoughts. If i enter an elevator and get dizzy, what do i do? Take slow, deep breaths.

How do various elements of the story—conflict and resolution, characters’ dialogue and behavior—contribute to the story’s theme?
Irina18 [472]
The story, which seems to be about several characters finding their identity within themselves, uses these elements to express the plot and its moral. The conflict and resolution between Squeaky and other characters (sorry, havent read the book, just a quick summary) shows the growth of her character (and if anyone else had conflicts and resolutions, its growth for them too). Its the characters way of finding their maturity, and learning how to handle their problems, and having the experience after dealing with them. Also, both the dialouge and their behavior towards certain actions or words can also show us the characters progression and growth, and can give us a bit of insight as to where the character stands in the beginning, and how they find themselves and their true calling and identity in the end.


hope this helps!
