About this book
This book provides a fully updated in-depth overview of Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), which is the most widely-disseminated evidence-based psychotherapy utilized today.
The Massachusetts General Hospital Handbook of Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, 2nd edition displays the constantly evolving nature of CBT due to the continuous research trials conducted by clinicians. This second edition presents updated information and literature to reflect the current clinical guidelines based on research studies that have been published in the past few years. Chapters cover applying CBT to common disorders such as depression, obsessive-compulsive disorder, and anxiety disorders, as well as more specialized applications such as schizophrenia. Chapters also provide information on how to tailor CBT for specific populations and in specific settings. The book also features new chapters on the use of technology in treating psychiatric disorders and novel models of care and treatments for psychiatric disorders.
The fully updated and expanded second edition of The Massachusetts General Hospital Handbook of Cognitive Behavioral Therapy will continue to be a go-to resource for all psychiatrists, psychologists, social workers, licensed mental health counselors, primary care doctors, graduate students, and psychiatry residents and fellows implementing cognitive behavioral therapy in their clinical practice.
