    focuses on changing harmful behaviors through conditioning and reinforcement

    Behavioral Therapy, also known as Behavior Therapy or Behavioral Treatment, is a type of psychotherapy that focuses on changing harmful behaviors through various techniques such as conditioning, reinforcement, and desensitization.
