Cognitive Therapy - Basics and Beyond
Judith S Beck - $80 = P&H

Effective strategies for modifying underlying assumptions and core beliefs are also explicated. In addition to numerous practical suggestions, a variety of sample patient worksheets are included and appendices that detail resource materials and reading lists for both the practitioner and the client.
Cognitive Therapy for Challenging Problems: What to do when the basics don’t work
Judith S Beck - $66 +P&H
- This book provides a clear framework and step-by-step suggestions for identifying and overcoming therapeutic obstacles. While recommendations presented are applicable to a variety of difficult situations, particular attention is given to coping strategies associated with personality disorders.

This book will enhance the knowledge and skills of practitioners at all levels, as well as students in psychology, psychiatry, social work and family therapy.

It discusses how to educate patients in the treatment model and procedures and manage their cravings and urges for drugs and alcohol. Specific cognitive and behavioural strategies and techniques are described, as are methods for understanding and working with patients who present concomitant problems of depression, anxiety, low frustration tolerance, anger, and personality disorders. Also addressed are such significant issues as crisis management and relapse prevention.
Cognitive Therapy of Depression
Aaron T Beck, A John Rush, Brian F Shaw, Gary Emery - $60 +P&H
- This text from Dr Beck and his colleagues presents their definitive synthesis of theory, experimental research, and clinical experience. The thesis of this volume is that depression arises from a “cognitive triad” of errors and from the idiosyncratic way one infers, recollects, and generalizes. Beck and his associates show how, from initial interview to later sessions, the therapist can implement substantiated, cognitive-behavioural techniques to loosen the grip of “depressogenic” thoughts and assumptions.
