Handbook of cognitive therapy techniques

"This highly practical book describes 80 key cognitive therapy techniques, offering for each the theoretical basis, a thumbnail description of technique, case illustrations, and further readings. The techniques, developed over many years of research and practice, cover a wide range and include countering statements, methods for making perceptual shifts, various conditioning techniques, paradoxical methods, and logical analysis. This consistent format and perspective, as well as the illustrative cases and dialogues, make this an especially useful handbook." -- Inside cover
