Publisher's summary

Are you consistently plagued with feelings of Anxiety or Depression?

Almost every person will suffer from issues relating to negative thinking patterns at some stage in their life, it's unavoidable. Whether it's facing phobias, obsessive-compulsive tendencies, or full-scale anxiety or depression. It's much more prevalent than you think. But most people aren't equipped with the right mental tools to identify the underlying reasons for their problems, or spot the triggers which set them off.

This is where Cognitive Behavioral Therapy can help. Since its discovery in the 1960's, CBT has proved to be one of, if not the most beneficial and effective modes of therapy for treating all human mental disturbances.

Katherine Chambers is an ex-Stanford Psychologist who specializes in all forms neuroscientific and psychotherapy subjects. However it wasn't until she left college life and entered the "real world" did she start to understand these theoretical topics in a practical sense. This has included intense scrutiny of CBT methods.

In this insightful and functional book, Chambers gives listeners a comprehensive overview of the specific CBT principles and treatment techniques available today, including:

  • What actually is CBT and what can it treat?
  • Understanding anxiety and depression
  • Identifying thought patterns and why it's so important to break the negative cycles
  • How to spot and address maladaptive coping mechanisms
  • Multimodel ModeI personality approach explained
  • Reprocessing and EMDR techniques for post-traumatic stress
  • Dialectical Therapy for high risk cases
  • ...and much more.

A Psychologist's Guide to Cognitive Behavioral Therapy is designed to give listeners an overall outlook on the CBT principles available today.

Works well!

I utilize CBT regularly when working with clients, and to me, this book does a great job of giving you an introduction and understanding to what may feel mysterious or confusing about CBT, both for mental health professionals and clients.

Worth the listen!

I bought this workbook to familiarize myself with CBT techniques and its foundation. The book is written clearly, without any complicated jargon and the examples provided are easy to relate to. I would highly recommend this workbook to either a a self-help or for someone, like in my case, wanted to learn more about CBT and gain quick knowledge about using CBT model with depressed individuals.

Step by step ideas

This is a straight forward, easy to understand CBT book. It explains what you are doing every step of the way, and is really very helpful. This is still a very good book, and while I'm far from finished with it, I've already begun to experience some relief.

An excellent introduction to CBT

've been fighting with depression and anxieties for 20 years - ever since I was a kid - and my ACE score is 5 (ACE Study is not mentioned in this book, though). After systematically reading through this book I learned skills - however obvious they might have seemed - that help me almost daily fight with worries, insecurities, irritation, broken heart, abandonment issues, panicking over nothing, and all those other forms of anxiety. A good book. Short. To the point. Sometimes you might feel like it's speaking in a very simple way, but I think the point is that we all act like children sometimes, and stubbornly refuse the most obvious advises.
