Watch the “Reality Therapy Demonstrations” video from the University Library.
Write a 700- to 1,050-w0rd pap3r in which you analyze the video. In your pap3r, be sure to:
- Describe the assumptions of the human nature of reality therapy.
- Define what encompasses a client’s quality world.
- Explain how the client’s quality world is or is not fulfilled.
- Explain how the clinician applies the WPED model.
- Describe how effective this approach was with the client in the video. Support your response with relevant examples and details.
Note: Use the topics above as headings in your pap3r.

Describe the assumptions of the human nature of reality therapy.
Introduction
Human nature of reality therapy is a form of psychotherapy that explores the human condition and our relationship with reality. It was founded by Dr. George Hourigan in 1963, who believed that all of us have the ability to change our lives for the better. He used this belief as a foundation for his theory on human nature and how we can change it through self-awareness and personal responsibility.
We are all responsible for our own actions.
The second assumption of human nature is that we are all responsible for our own actions. We must take responsibility for our own actions and work to improve ourselves.
We always have the freedom to choose
We always have the freedom to choose.
If you want to change your mind, you can. If you don’t like something that someone else thinks, then it’s possible for them (and yourself) to change their minds and feel differently about it.
If someone has done something wrong in your eyes, then there are ways for them (and yourself) to fix things and make amends so that everyone is happy again.
We make conscious choices that can be changed at any time.
Human nature is the way we think and behave. It is a concept made up by the mind to help us understand ourselves, others and the world around us. Human nature assumes that we make conscious choices that can be changed at any time.
We always have the freedom to choose what we do with our lives; there are no restrictions on how we should live them or what kind of person we should become! This means that it’s possible for you to change your life for better or worse depending on how well or poorly you apply yourself during each moment: whether it be getting out of bed in the morning or sitting down after dinner with family members who love each other very much…
You must accept responsibility for your choices.
In the human nature of reality therapy, you must accept responsibility for your choices. You are responsible for your own life and can change it at any time. This means that if you decide to become a drug addict or alcoholic, then you must accept that this is something that has been chosen by yourself. It does not mean that someone else made this choice for them (which would be considered an act of murder). If a person is addicted to drugs or alcohol but their family wants them help themselves out of addiction and they refuse because they don’t want to change their lifestyle then this is also an act of choice on behalf of those who they love most – namely their parents/guardians/spouses etc., etc., etc…
The reason why I say this so often when I teach people about my philosophy is because I know how difficult it can be sometimes: especially when there might be times where we don’t feel like taking responsibility for ourselves since we may feel like our lives aren’t really ours anymore – as though someone else took control over everything happening around us instead! So let me ask again: do YOU take responsibility for YOUR LIFE?
Conclusion
As you can see, human nature is a very important concept in reality therapy. It’s not just about understanding how we think and feel; it also gives us an opportunity to look at our choices more clearly. The more you understand about yourself, the better equipped you’ll be to make positive changes in your life.
