Publisher's Summary

Cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) is a relatively short-term, results-oriented type of psychotherapy, which has a clear goal and uses a more practical approach for tackling psychological disorders. The goal usually is to change behavior or thought patterns that cause people to feel the way they do. CBT is employed for treating a large number of mental ailments or disorders from insomnia to relationship issues to substance abuse or anxiety/depression.

The therapy involves altering an individual's behavior patterns and attitude by concentrating on their thoughts, visual imagery, underlying beliefs and overall attitude (held in the person's cognizance), and impacting the way it processes a person's behavior and manner of dealing with psychological problems.

In this book you will hear about:

• Understanding Anxiety and Depression
• What Causes Depression?
• Types of Depression
• Treatment and Therapies
• Types of Anxiety Disorders
• Difference Between Anxiety and Depression
• Decoding Cognitive Behavioral Therapy
• Three Major Approaches to Cognitive Behavioral Therapy
• Dealing With Intrusive Thoughts
• Where Do The Thoughts Originate?
• Cognitive Distortions
• Effective Self-Help Cognitive Behavioral Techniques
• CBT Techniques for Fighting Depression
• CBT Techniques for Anxiety

Cognitive behavioral therapy is considered a holistic combination of both behavioral therapy and psychotherapy. While psychotherapy focuses on the significance or the relevance of our early childhood in our thinking and behavioral patterns, behavioral therapy emphasizes on the close equation between our psychological problems, behavior patterns, and thoughts.

unless one has no knowledge of mental health, skip

Unless you have no knowledge of basic mental health, this is not worth purchasing. I was dissapointed after the great reviews, although I was also suspicious of the quality of reviews for an audio book in such a short period.
The individual reading it was great.

Really bad

just a list of conditions/ treatments and descriptions of them and after each advice to go ask your doctor.

pretty good

A very good introduction to CBT,easy to have and absorb, can't go wrong for the price! If you always wanted to know what is CBT, but don't wanna a lot to listen this us your book!

most welcome

They were both welcome and insightful. I am definitely going to add a few of them to my list to refer back to often. I definitely recommend listening this one through a few times in order to fully digest all of the information.

interesting

I'm not usually into these kinds of books, but there were a lot of interesting points made. I recommend for anyone who works with a wide variety of people.

MINDFUL THINKING

I find this book insightful. Not many people understand depression or other mental conditions. For people who suffer these conditions, it is hard to find ways to cope. I myself deal with anxiety and stress. I do not know how to manage my thoughts and feelings well. This book really helps for people like me who are seeking help. It is about time to have a book that truly understands and explains the importance of careful and mindful thinking

insightful

Excellent listen, I suffer from PTSD, major depression and i found this book very insightive.thanks to the Beck institute for thier research.

classic wisdom

Classic must have for anyone interested in CBT. I'm a therapist working with severe and perisistant any mental illness including psychosis and I recommend his book often. This book is a great guide to practicing and learning.

coginitive therapy

This book provided the necessary "training" that I needed to enhance my knowledge of CBT. It is explained for a clinician, and provides the perfect balance of theory and practice, even offering a audio book-type feel. Using one client's experience throughout the book was a great move. I enjoyed listening this book and use it as a reference in my practice..

practising

In my humble opinion, It's a helpful book as long as you get into the discipline of following the exercises, and practice them, day by day.
