*Dr Christine A. Padesky*
There are many books that give us the basics of CBT. This
one gives us the basics and beyond - what to
do, when to do it, how to do it, and why we need to do it. Its
mix of case material, techniques and illustrations (including truly
enlightening videos of therapy in practice) make the book hard to
put down. Whatever the disorder, whatever the age group, whatever
the complexity - this book will help you to improve
your practice. Consider it mandatory reading for any trainee,
supervisor or clinician who takes patient care seriously.
*Professor Glenn Waller*
An Introduction to Cognitive Behaviour Therapy Skills and
Applications has been a core text for learners, novice and
experienced practitioners, and CBT educators alike since its first
edition in 2007. All reputable CBT training programmes have this
text on their essential reading lists. The third edition with its
comprehensive new features such as the inclusion of videos, new
case studies, additional exercises, and a focus on the cultural
context of CBT will make what is already a great book
indispensable.
*University of Reading*
This book is not just an introduction to CBT; it is the
introduction to CBT. The depth of the authors’ expertise as
therapists, supervisors and trainers shines through and their
knowledge is shared in an accessible way. The new edition includes
several contemporary themes and also provides a companion
website with video links. Quite simply, new students of CBT
should start here.
*Dr Stephen Barton*
This third edition contains all of the conciseness and clarity of
the earlier editions, but with greater depth and scope. Any
questions about how to use it in practice can be answered by using
the demonstration videos and Companion Website. Comprehensive,
authoritative, practical and friendly, this remains the essential
guide to CBT.
