Product Description
An indispensable clinical companion, this book is packed with useful tools and interventions that will expand the repertoire of novice and experienced cognitive therapists. Detailed are the full variety of evidence-based techniques that can be brought to bear on specific client problems and therapeutic challenges. Therapists will rediscover--or learn for the first time--a wealth of effective ways to identify and challenge thoughts and core beliefs; modify patterns of worry, self-criticism, and approval-seeking; evaluate personal schemas; intervene in emotional processes; and activate new experiences for the client. Each technique is thoroughly described in Robert L. Leahy's trademark accessible style and illustrated with vivid case examples. Designed in a convenient large-size format, the book is bursting with over 80 reproducible client forms and handouts.

If you are into self discovery, therapy and for thinkers, I got these recommendations from another writer, I read them and highly enjoyed them. These two books are very easy to comprehend, and they are one of a kind. Check it out RUMI & SELF PSYCHOLOGY (PSYCHOLOGY OF TRANQUILITY) and SARA'S THERAY: THE WAY TO PURITY (A SESSION BY SESSION TALK OF AN ACTUAL THERAPY PROCESS OF SELF GROWTH).

Outstanding, comprehensive resource book, 2008-03-17
A wonderful addition to any professional library. Leahy provides detailed descriptions and examples of a wide variety of cognitive interventions, complete with examples of the questions and statements that the therapist can use for each intervention, and sample therapist-client dialogues. The book contains many excellent ideas for cognitive restructuring in ways that are empathic and respectful of the client's feelings. There are also lots of sample worksheets that can be used for clients' homework. This book is great for therapists at any level who want new ideas for cognitive work.

Cognitive Therapy Techniques: A Practioner's Guide, 2007-02-12
Leahy provides the new therapist with an excellent book of CBT therapeutic techniques. This book is up-to-date and is evidence of further integration of CBT with other types of therapy.
