abstract = "Psychotherapy was, at the very beginning, only a method of treating neurotic disorders in psychiatry, but over time it has gone beyond medicine and become accepted in solving everyday life problems and improving the quality of life of well-adjusted people, too. In this way, it imposed and fought for its place in all developed cultures. Besides, because of its broader connection with many social and human sciences (pedagogy sociology ethics, law, linguistics, philosophy religion, psychology art, defectology, etc.), it is considered to be a certain civilization achievement that significantly marks the modern age.
In addition to the general problems of psychotherapy as a supportive method in defectological treatment, we have paid special attention to behavioral therapy and its application in defectology within each of its branches. Based on the analysis performed, it is generally concluded that, despite the relevant results of the relatively widespread use of behavioral-cognitive therapies in working with children and young people (as well as adults) with disabilities, there is a lack of a more comprehensive theory on the development and elimination of sensory, cognitive and social disabilities, as well as the treatment of mental disorders in the population of individuals with developmental disabilities. Therefore, we need appropriate research that will provide new insights and more accurate data on the true value, as well as disadvantages and advantages in relation to other approaches in the treatment of this population.",
