Download or read book Cognitive Behaviour Therapy written by Danny C. K. Lam and published by Psychology Press. This book was released on 2008 with total page 234 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Cognitive Behaviour Therapy: A Practical Guide to Helping People Take Control explores the premise that negative beliefs play an important role in the development and continuation of mental health problems. The book offers a new integrative model of causality for instigating change, based on giving clients control and choice over these beliefs, and therefore over their mood and behaviour. This practical guide also focuses on the stigmas often attached to people with 'mental illness'. Danny C. K. Lam suggests that by providing both the client and the general public with a more accurate understanding of the nature and causes of mental health problems it is possible to de-stigmatise the 'mental illness' label. This will help the client improve self-esteem and the ability to manage personal and interpersonal difficulties and take control of their problems and responsibility for recovery. Divided into six parts, this book covers: stigma, prejudice and discrimination from societal perspectives the nature and cause of emotional upsets a therapeutic framework for change self-prejudice, personal and interpersonal issues good and bad methods of communication practical approaches to assessing problems methods of taking control. This cognitive behavioural approach to mental health problems is an innovative contribution to the field. Illustrated throughout with clinical examples and practical advice, the book is essential reading for all of those involved in mental health, from nurses to counsellors, and from medical practitioners and social workers to ministers of religion.

Download or read book Oxford Guide to Behavioural Experiments in Cognitive Therapy written by Khadj Rouf and published by OUP Oxford. This book was released on 2004-05-06 with total page 496 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Behavioural experiments are one of the central and most powerful methods of intervention in cognitive therapy. Yet until now, there has been no volume specifically dedicated to guiding physicians who wish to design and implement behavioural experiments across a wide range of clinical problems. The Oxford Guide to Behavioural Experiments in Cognitive Therapy fills this gap. It is written by clinicians for clinicians. It is a practical, easy to read handbook, which is relevant for practising clinicians at every level, from trainees to cognitive therapy supervisors. Following a foreword by David Clark, the first two chapters provide a theoretical and practical background for the understanding and development of behavioural experiments. Thereafter, the remaining chapters of the book focus on particular problem areas. These include problems which have been the traditional focus of cognitive therapy (e.g. depression, anxiety disorders), as well as those which have only more recently become a subject of study (bipolar disorder, psychotic symptoms), and some which are still in their relative infancy (physical health problems, brain injury). The book also includes several chapters on transdiagnostic problems, such as avoidance of affect, low self-esteem, interpersonal issues, and self-injurious behaviour. A final chapter by Christine Padesky provides some signposts for future development. Containing examples of over 200 behavioural experiments, this book will be of enormous practical value for all those involved in cognitive behavioural therapy, as well as stimulating exploration and creativity in both its readers and their patients.

Book excerpt: Would You Like To Take Back Your Life And Be The Person You Always Wanted To Be? - NOW INCLUDES FREE GIFTS! (see below for details) Do you feel stuck in a rut, unable to move forward with your life? Are things not going as you would like them to, no matter how hard you try? Are you suffering from anxiety or depression? Do you find yourself repeating the same negative patterns over and over again? Do you want to be fully in control of your life and emotions again? Are you struggling with an addiction such as alcoholism or binge eating? If the answer to any of these questions is yes, this book will provide you with the answers you''ve been looking for! Cognitive behavioral therapy is a scientifically proven technique that helps you to adjust your thinking and behaviors so that you can break out of negative loops and move forward in a much more positive manner. It teaches you how you can adjust your thinking and helps you to differentiate between negative thoughts that are helpful and those that are not. And it more than just thinking or acting in a positive manner - you will learn that negative thoughts are natural and nothing to be ashamed of. They can be converted into thoughts that can galvanize you into action though. Cognitive behavioral therapy is not about being in denial - it is not about thinking that you will never have a negative thought again. Instead, it adopts a more realistic approach and gives you the tools to use when those negative thoughts do come into being. You learn not only how to deal with long-held negative beliefs but also how to deal with new ones that might crop up in future. In this book we will look at: Delving deeper into your feelings and looking at ways to clearly define what those feelings are; how to tell the difference between feelings that are healthy and unhealthy and how to shift the focus so that your feelings become more productive. Identifying what your core beliefs and automatic responses are and determining whether these are helping you or getting in your way. You will learn more about how your core beliefs are formed and how to determine whether or not your core beliefs are valid and helpful for you. How you can reorient your core beliefs so that they assist you in achieving what it is that you want to achieve. Changing your core beliefs can be difficult - these are things that you would normally have started learning as children. They color the way you experience your life, the way you see the world and how you interpret the actions of others. Even when we know, at some level, that these core beliefs are no longer valid, it can be hard to break free of them. In this book, you will learn how to challenge the core beliefs that are getting in your way and how to change them to more helpful beliefs. How you can set goals for yourself when it comes to the changes you want to affect and how to ensure that these goals are as effective as possible. How you can adapt your behavior so that it is more in line with the goals that you want to achieve and assist you in moving forward. How to gradually increase your exposure to situations that you might find difficult, so that you can make lasting changes in the most comfortable way possible. How to maintain the new behaviors and how to prevent a relapse into old, negative behaviors. ...and much more!
