Description
Cognitive Behavior Therapy: Basics and Beyond, Third edition
Dr. Judith S. Beck, co-founder of the Beck Institute for Cognitive Behavior Therapy, wrote this guide to the theory and practice of CBT. It walks through every phase of treatment: cognitive restructuring, behavioral activation and modifying core beliefs.
The third edition adds recovery-oriented cognitive therapy (CT-R), which shifts part of the therapeutic focus toward a client’s values, aspirations and positive beliefs, alongside the standard case conceptualization work.
A case followed from evaluation to termination
Beck uses continuous case examples to show the therapeutic process from initial evaluation and cognitive conceptualization through to termination and relapse prevention, rather than isolated snippets.
Worksheets and session transcripts included
The book includes clinical tips, dialogue transcripts from real therapy sessions, and reproducible worksheets and cognitive conceptualization diagrams for clinical use.
What is new in the third edition
- Integration of recovery-oriented cognitive therapy (CT-R).
- A shift toward a client’s values, aspirations and positive beliefs alongside standard case conceptualization.
