Really good feedback from students on the useage of this text in academic and clinical work.
This book is useful for students and practitioners. Models of both CBT and depression are presented and explored. Aspects of depression are considered in some depth, and with reference to the working alliance. Information is clearly presented in the context of case examples; the references to literature are comprehensive.
This text offers CBT practitioners of all levels of experience a go to troubleshooting guide for what can be a very challenging disorder to treat, chronic depression. With excellent case studies and detailed treatment plans this will help our students to understand how they can adjust their core treatment approaches to acute depression when they are faced with more complex presentations.
