Cognitive Behavior Therapy, Second Edition: Basics and Beyond

Good text book for beginners in CBT

Nice book

This is for giving incorrect edition in the product name. The third edition is yet to come. It is expected in sept 2020. Please don’t mislead people

Was happy with delivery but as I started reading realised there are at least 8 pages which are left blank and few pages are not printed in the right alignment, as if it's a photocopied and refurbished book.. feeling bad to have a defective copy of the book.

Very informative, important manual for cognitive therapy

Es bibliografía indispensable para cualquiera interesado en la TCC. 100% recomendable

A fine outline of mainly the Beckian CBT approach - all the basic theory and techniques are here....if you are learning CBT it would be a very useful addition, especially in how to conduct structured sessions.

Authoratative introduction to CBT with core examples of how to conduct CBT therapy, with transcripts of sessions, demonstrating concepts in action.

Judith Beck's book is like a playbook for psychotherapy. Imagine a football team where the coaches never drew up plays and the quarterback never established any expectations about what would happen after the ball was snapped. What is the common factor in sports teams that don't develop a cohesive strategy and don't collaborate and work together on common goals? They lose. They fail to achieve their objectives. They're left sad and burned out watching others win championships.The same holds true for psychotherapy. Offering support, building a relationship or "establishing rapport" is only one piece of an effective game plan. Psychotherapists who line up for their sessions unprepared and without a plan or coherrent case conceptualization are doing a serious disservice to those they are suppose to serve. They are setting themselves up to be in situations where they hope to connect on Hail Mary passes or complete next to impossible 50+ yard field goals. Ultimately, their sessions may fail to rise to "greatness."Good sports teams not only focus on the fundamentals, they execute on their gameplans as opposed to simply talking a good game. A good therapist should also have a "game plan."You can now get 12 Continuing Education credits from PsychContinuingEd com for reading the book Cognitive Behavior Therapy, Second Edition: Basics and Beyond(book sold separately here at Amazon). The quiz is based on the latest version published in July, 2011.This is not a boring, overly theoretical workout like some books tend to be. This is a "psychotherapy playbook" packed with useful techniques and guidance on how to structure the entire course of Cognitive Behavior Therapy.[Judith Beck uses the term "Cognitive Behavior Therapy" as opposed to Cognitive Behavioral Therapy. Her father, Aaron Beck, began by using "Cognitive Therapy." Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) now tends to refer to a collection of similar approaches to CT].
