The addition of a section on CBT and IAPT is useful as many of our students work in an IAPT context. Also the emphasis on Third Wave CBT approaches is welcome as we do include these in yr 2 of our CBT course. Overall the book represents significant improvements to former titles by the same authors (e.g. CBT : An Intro). Material is very accessible and this is helped by use of good illustrative client examples. Would be good to see a section on critique/challenges to CBT and perhaps to include other Third Wave approaches such as Compassionate Mind Therapy
Frank Wills Essential reading
A good book to aid the understanding of cognitive behaviour. Although it is specific to one area it is certainly worth considering as a purchase.
A very good book in an ever expanding sea of CBT text books
Book will be an additional and welcome advisory to the psychosocial interventions unit currently offered. It may also be considered as one that could be utilised in the pre-registration nursing (mental health) programme.
'This volume should be the first stop for mental health practitioners from all disciplines looking for an introduction to the basic art and ideasof cognitive therapy' - Adrian Wells, Professor of Clinical & Experimental Psychology, University of Manchester
'One of the very best introductions to CBT, now enhanced with excellent coverage of new developments' - Professor Neil Frude, Consultant Clinical Psychologist
This is proving to be an essential book for early learners and practitioners of CBT. It is most useful as a lecturing aid and after ordering it is now in our library with students referring to it regularly.
We will add this to the essential reading for Year 1
This is a good book and I consider students will be greatly benefited by the use of it
this book provides student midwives with an introduction to the CBT. this is something that has increasing coverage and will be something that many patients will be experiencing. This book will enhance the student undersatnding and can only enhance the impact of care provision for the maternity services
a useful book providing the basic information required to have a working knowledge of CBT
I would recommend this introduction to CBT to any trainee, but especially those preparing to work in IAPT services. The chapters on the therapeutic realtionship and how to work with emotion in CBT are particularly helpful and well written, while avoiding becoming too technical or fuzzy! The use of case studies to illustrate how theoretical aspects of therapy translate into practice is particularly helpful.
Excellent core book that is great for introduction courses and beginnings of practice. the UK focus makes this an excellent source. Will be course core text book
A comprehensive review of CBT theory and practice
An excellent introduction to this topic. I would highly recommend this book.
This is a really good book that addresses much of the curiculum of the CBT modules we offer.I personally liked the level of detail and applicability to practice of the content. This book will be of use for novice and experienced practitioners and I feel it is a good resource for any therapist.
An excellent updated overview of the shape of current CBT. I'm recommending this as a core-text for our PGC CBT course.
A good all round book that I use mainly for the teaching of qualified staff (nurses, social workers).\
A good, easy to follow introductory book for all trainee therapists. From planning to formulations, it provides a practical and up to date guided approach to practising CB. The book addresses key important aspects and competencies, from initial assessment through planning and formulation.The addition of Chapter 12 covering CBT in the context of IAPT is helpful and informative, providing the reader with an insight into the intricacies of working in this Service.
This book is a good academic resource for students and trainee counsellors. Linkinging theory to practise with clear jargon-free explanations, the authors enable the reader to get a true sense of how to use CBT to work with a wide range of client problems/difficulties. Clinical examples help further illustrate how to apply the various key concepts to achieve emotional and behavioural change.The chapter on the wider applications of CBT is informative and it helps further cement CBT’s invaluable position in an effective health care system.
