The Structure and Application of Cognitive Behavioural Therapy




This book outlines the structure and application of Cognitive Behavioural Therapy by discussing the following: 

How an individual interprets life events plays a role in determining how he or she responds to those events (Beck, 1991). 

How CBT patients are seen as being excessively negative in their beliefs and suffering from the use of maladaptive information processing strategies.  

How patients to identify their maladaptive beliefs and processing tendencies and to systematically test the accuracy of those beliefs and tendencies. 

Encourages examination and the accuracy of their beliefs, and engagement in a series of “experiments” in which behaviors are systematically varied in order to test the accuracy of those beliefs.
