Dr. Jones is using behavioral therapy. Behavioral therapy is is centered on social learning theory and focuses on the principals or ideas of classical conditioning (Pavlov) and operant conditioning (Skinner). The idea is that all behavior is learned and a patient can learn correct or acceptable behavior.
