Cognitive Behavior Therapy for Anxiety, Addiction and Depression

Everything You Need to Know About Treating Depression, Social Anxiety, Addictions, OCD, Phobias, Negative Thinking

By: William E Joyce

Narrated by: Kortney Miranda

At least one in five adults in the US experiences some form of mental illness every year - a clear indication that the number of Americans who are battling mental illnesses is on an upward trajectory. This reality has called upon various methods of treatment, but none seems as effective as cognitive behavioral therapy.

CBT is a method of treatment that embraces the best aspects of both talk therapy and behavioral therapy. It has been exceedingly successful because it offers a lot of flexibility and the results are long-lasting - a stark contrast to most other forms of treatments such as medication, which can be rigid, expensive, and not to mention cyclical.

According to CBT practitioners, behaviors, thoughts, and feelings are intertwined. A person’s feelings are informed by their perceptions, which might be accurate or distorted. Hence, CBT steps in to expose cognitive distortions and promote positive thoughts, thus effectively restoring mental health.

This audiobook makes a foray into cognitive behavioral therapy and enlightens us on how CBT is helping alleviate various mental health conditions.

It explains almost everything you needed

I found this book truly inspiring and helpful. William E Joyce telling an easy to follow self help guide to mastering the benefits of Cognitive Behavioral Therapy. The idea behind CBT is that you can change your thoughts and therefore improve your reaction to emotions that you cannot change in situations, helping you with anxiety, stress, and depression to name a few.

Informative and effective guide

Love it. Gives me so much knowledge and information. Being one who has been diagnosed with MCI.

Awesome Book

This is a good and informative book on CBT. It provides a good introduction to the concept with some helpful techniques to help with thinking more positively.

Great techniques

This is a great little book to explain the tenants of CBT. It goes into more detail than the CBT Skills manual and does a decent job of explaining how to use the skills in daily life. Worth reading multiple times!

I highly recommend this audio book

Found it as one of the best reference books that guides therapists who are interested in using CBT in their sessions. Very helpful and presents role-play between therapist and patient!

A must listen!

I am very happy to read this book.Well written by author this great book.I highly recommend this well book.Easy to follow this book.

Very helpful guide!

I've been looking for a simple, easy to navigate explanation of CBT. As a disabled woman, it's easy to feel depressed and anxious. Negative thoughts about my self and societal worth are frequently present, and it's very easy to fall into the trap of believing my limitations are catastrophic and unchangeable.

This was a great book.

This is a great introduction to Cognitive Behavioral Therapy. Allmost everyon can benefit from CBT at some point in their life. It's very helpful in understanding yourself and those around you.

This audio book is really awesome!

Especially helpful is the fact that he groups the multitude of CBT strategies into three groups: Think, Act, Be. Breaking CBT down to just three basic groupings makes the task of tackling one’s problematic feelings and behaviors feel less daunting and more manageable.

Its great

I encountered CBT years ago in my college studies and I was very surprised to find that someone was able to make it into a self-help program outside of a psychologist’s clinical setting. The author explains everything in plain English and that makes the average person a whole lot more likely to keep listening.
