Wonderfully helpful whether you've had a CBT therapist before, or if it's new to you
I've had a great experience before receiving in-person Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, but I needed a tune-up. This book has come to the rescue with a great review of CBT and cognitive distortions, and a ton of worksheets and exercises to help you put the ideas into action in your life.The chapter titles give a very good overview of what you can expect, and include "Growing Self-Esteem and Self-Acceptance," "Managing Stress, Anxiety, and Anger," and "Letting Go of Guilt and Shame." I appreciate that the worksheets include time estimates so you can get an idea of what you're getting into when you dig into them. Also useful are the "lessons learned" sections where you review what you've learned and reflect on it.While I'm already a fan of CBT and was pretty familiar with it before reading this book, my feeling is that it is written clearly and carefully enough to provide a useful intro to anyone who hasn't yet encountered this method. The world would be a much healthier, happier place if everyone, including those who don't even think they need therapy, read this book and did these exercises - everyone can benefit from self-reflection and from clearer thinking, and this book makes space for that work to be done.
