Main description:

This comprehensive workbook brings together in one handy volume a wealth of easy-to-apply CBT-based models and worksheets to help your clients move on. Maybe they're stuck in a pattern of self-harmful beliefs and behaviours that is destroying their lives, work or relationships. Maybe they're caught in a cycle of unhelpful responses to particular trigger situations and can't find a way out. Sometimes our brain just needs to be given a simple set of steps to test out, see if they work, and if they do, substitute for the old, unproductive ways of being. This workbook is for counselling, psychology and mental health practitioners, but it's also for your clients. Too often practitioners talk about clients becoming their own therapists. These worksheets give them the tools they need to do so, with and without your help.
