This is a comprehensive guide to the application of cognitive-behavioural therapy (CBT) throughout adult psychiatry. Case histories are used to illustrate the application as well as the theory underpinning the techniques. No school of CBT dominates in the book, but a range of CBT therapies are discussed, with particular focus on the evidence base for the interventions. This is a practical book that will guide and inform your treatment of patients. It is an indispensable resource for psychiatrists, CBT therapists and trainees, as well as a wide range of medical specialists. It covers all relevant adult mental health problems, from the most common to the unusual cases, and incorporates all schools of CBT including behavioural, cognitive, schema-focused and third generation therapies. Numerous and thought-provoking case examples show the practical application of various therapies and demonstrate a rounded approach to patient treatment.
