About this product
Product Information
Written in a clear, step-by-step style, this ideal teaching text makes cognitive therapy immediately accessible to students as well as to professionals new to cognitive therapy. The author uses a single case example to demonstrate how to conceptualize patients according to the cognitive model, plan treatment, conduct an initial session, structure therapy within and across sessions, incorporate homework, and use cognitive and behavioral techniques. Instructors will appreciate the book's emphasis on formulating cases, making decisions within therapy sessions, diagnosing problems in therapy, and using advanced techniques to modify core beliefs and underlying assumptions. Transcripts in every chapter richly illustrate the narrative.Product Identifiers

Reviews"Dr. Beck has provided a clearly written description of cognitive therapy, with helpful examples, that fills a need in the process of teaching and training students of cognitive therapy." --James L. Shenk, Ph.D., California School of Professional Psychology, course: Individual Psychotherapy: Cognitive "....A superb textbook that fully realizes the promise of its title....This is essential reading for any student or therapist new to cognitive therapy, but even experienced therapists will find the author's ideas a rich source for enhanced skill-building." --Riki Koenigsberg, Ph.D. in Readings "This is a most useful manual for beginning students and clinicians in mental health professions. Its emphasis on the pragmatics of cognitive therapy makes it a valuable tool for therapy educators and supervisors. Among the existing books on cognitive therapy that emphasize its theoretical foundations, this stands out as a concise, practical guide.****" --Sara J. Knight, PhD, Northwestern University Medical Schools "An unusually detailed and clear description of Aaron T. Beck's cognitive therapy, with some notable additions by his daughter and colleague, Judith S. Beck. A definitive, comprehensive guidebook that creatively covers the ground of cognitive-behavioral therapy." --Albert Ellis, Ph.D., President, Institute for Rational-Emotive Therapy, NY, Author of A New Guide to Rational Living "Judith Beck has written an uncommonly useful text both for therapists who want to learn about the concepts and procedures of cognitive therapy as well as for those involved in clinical teaching and supervision. All too often the phrase 'cognitive therapy' is applied to any effort at helping people construe their world in more productive ways. But it is more subtle and more complex than simply telling a person to stop thinking in a particular way. This lucid, informative book makes the job of understanding cognitive therapy and how to apply it a good deal clearer and easier. I look forward to assigning it to my graduate students." --Gerald C. Davison, Ph.D., Dean and Professor of Psychology, Annenberg School for Communication, Univ of Southern California; Past President, Assoc for Advancement of Behavior Therapy "...a practical, no-nonsense text that is extremely conprehensive and reader-friendly. Throughout the book, Ms. Beck offers clinical examples taken from actual transcripts of therapy sessions that clearly and practically illustrate each technique and concept...an important, timely, and valuable resource for psychiatric professionals who engage in formal cognitive behavioral therapy or who practice cognitive behavioral techniques in other contexts. This text provides a clarity of conceptualization and a review of techniques that will prove extremely useful to students as well as experienced therapists. This volume certainly will serve as the basic text for cognitive behavioral therapists and should be necessary reading for psychiatric professionals." --D. Thomas Blair in Journal of Psychosocial Nursing, "Dr. Beck has provided a clearly written description of cognitive therapy, with helpful examples, that fills a need in the process of teaching and training students of cognitive therapy."--James L.

Thomas Blair in Journal of Psychosocial Nursing, "When I want students to learn how to conduct cognitive therapy, C ognitive Therapy: Basics and Beyond is the first book I assign. Before I assigned this book for the first time, I reread it to make certain it was as useful as I remembered. It was--and to my surprise, I even found that many of what I had come to think of as my own special insights in training supervisees were actually right there on the page. When students have mastered this text, Judith Beck's Cognitive Therapy for Challenging Problems is a natural (and useful) next step."--Thomas L.

Thomas Blair in Journal of Psychosocial Nursing, "This is not just another book about cognitive therapy, or even abouth Aaron Beck's official brand of cognitive therapy. This book is really written for therapists and those training therapists. The essence of this book is not only a clear and scholarly presentation of cognitive therapy, but straight advice on how to overcome specific problems in introducing a patient (or therapist in training) to cognitive therapy. The appendixes include a case summary worksheet, reaading list for therapists, reading list for patients, and other resources." --Clinical Gerontologist "An invaluable text for mental health professionals who want a theoretical and pragmatic reference in their attempts to deal effectively with managed care....This product is complemented by contemporary clinical examples, giving the reader a sense of empowerment about his or her own clinical potential as a cognitive therapist....Whether readers are graduate students getting their first exposure to cognitive therapy or seasoned professionals wanting a refresher on cognitive theory, Dr. Beck's book will satisfy most all professional training needs." --Psychiatric Services " This valuable resource will enable therapists to strengthen their skills in cognitive therapy, a therapeutic approach whose effectiveness is repeatedly supported in research trials." --The Psychotherapy Newsletter, April 1996, Nancy Rosen, MSW, Executive Director of Suicide Prevention and Crisis Service of Tompkins County in Ithaca, NY Named one of the "Best Books of the Year" (1996) by Doody's Rating Service
