商品簡介
This guide for new and experienced cognitive behavior therapy (CBT) practitioners reviews the latest thinking on overcoming obstacles in CBT. The first part of the book looks at issues related to engaging the client and developing the therapeutic relationship, such as the impact of the client's 'significant others' on therapy. The heart of the book deals with specific clinical issues often encountered, such as perfectionism, intolerance of arousal, and physical symptoms. The last set of chapters explores issues related to supervision and the organizational context. Each chapter includes brief cases and extensive references for further reading. Chapter exercises involve reading outside sources, writing, drawing organizational diagrams, and reflecting on hypothetical scenarios.
