 +As an adaptive therapeutic approach, Integral Eye Movement Therapy (IEMT) incorporates elements from the three primary models of understanding human behaviour and experiences. These models include the biological, socio-political, and behavioural systems. By drawing from these comprehensive perspectives, IEMT practitioners can tailor their approach to best address the unique needs and circumstances of their clients.
 +
 +Firstly, the biological model considers the role of genetic, physiological, and neurological factors in shaping an individual's behaviour, emotions, and cognitive processes. By taking these factors into account, IEMT practitioners can recognise the potential influence of inherited traits, brain chemistry, and hormonal imbalances on a client's experience, and adapt their therapy techniques accordingly.
 +
 +Secondly, the socio-political model acknowledges the impact of societal structures, cultural norms, and political systems on an individual's behaviour and experiences. IEMT practitioners understand that these factors can shape a person's worldview, values, and social interactions, and they strive to address any related challenges within the therapy sessions. By appreciating the power dynamics and social influences at play, therapists can help clients navigate complex issues and foster personal growth.
 +
 +Lastly, the behavioural model focuses on understanding the processes of learning, conditioning, and reinforcement that contribute to the development of human behaviour patterns. IEMT practitioners use this model to help clients identify the root causes of their issues and work towards positive behavioural change. By exploring the underlying beliefs, habits, and coping mechanisms, therapists can support clients in developing new, healthier responses to life's challenges.

 The behavioural model of psychiatry is a conceptual framework that views mental health conditions as the result of learned behaviors and environmental factors, rather than as biologically based medical illnesses. According to this model, mental health conditions are not fixed or inherent, but rather are the result of the ways in which individuals learn to cope with and respond to their environment. The behavioural model of psychiatry is a conceptual framework that views mental health conditions as the result of learned behaviors and environmental factors, rather than as biologically based medical illnesses.

 One key aspect of the behavioural model of psychiatry is the emphasis on the role of reinforcement in shaping behavior. This model suggests that behavior is influenced by the consequences that follow it, and that certain behaviours can be strengthened or weakened through reinforcement or punishment. This approach is often used in the treatment of mental health conditions, such as phobias or obsessive-compulsive disorder, through techniques such as exposure therapy or behavior modification. One key aspect of the behavioural model of psychiatry is the emphasis on the role of reinforcement in shaping behavior.
