Metodycznie opracowane ćwiczenia pomagają nam doskonalić konkretne umiejętności, dzięki którym wiele osób zwalczyło depresję, napady paniki, zaburzenia łękowe, napady złości, poczucie winy i wstydu, niską samoocenę, zaburzenia odżywiania się, uzależnienia oraz problemy w związkach. Niezależnie od tego, czy chodzimy do terapeuty, możemy używać tego podręcznika jako skutecznego i praktycznego narzędzia w dążeniu do poprawy nastroju i pozytywnych zmian.

[Richard Schwindt]

This book has staying power. I was recommending it twenty-five years ago and I recommend it now. It is written at a level that works for someone who has difficulty with technical books but it isn't insulting to those who are well educated. This is important since there are stacks of them out there and therapists "prescribe" it to many. The final piece - the thought record - is a valuable tool that can be used for any difficult emotion, though the book is primarily directed towards those suffering from depression. Not everybody takes to cognitive therapy and some suffering from depression can't summon the memory and concentration to the tasks within but I tell my clients that this book rewards perseverance. Have a look; the beauty of cognitive approaches is that they can be used over a lifetime. While I have no problem with a client who with their doctor decides to go with meds, this book remains valuable and has no known side effects.

CBT, terapie poznawczo behawioralna, oceniana jest jako najskuteczniejsza. Podrecznik daje bardzo szczegolowy opis w jaki sposob mozna zmienic przekonania, jak pracowac z pacjentem, jakie schematy stosowac, nawet jakich konkretnie narzedzi czy argumentow uzywac. cala ksiazka jest jedna wielka reklamą samej ksiazki, co mi przeszkadzalo i denerwowało. ale to jak prostym jezykiem mowi sie w niej o pomaganiu ludziom jest chyba czyms co najbardziej pozytywnie mnie ujelo. ze nie ma przypadków beznadziejnych, ze zawsze warto poszukac drogi dojścia do pacjenta.

This is a good book for those wanting an introduction into the Cognitive Behavioral theory, conceptualization and techniques.

[Anna Rogovets]

Nice guide with simple but powerful exercises for making your life better and more conscious

[Denise Reed]

Practical examples on how to use the book Mind over Mood as a treatment manual. I liked how it could be used for other issues in addition to depression and anxiety.

[Hannah Jutila]

Extremely useful tool to understanding CBT and how to apply it to your professional work. Overall, it was very thorough and will be a longterm reference for my professional work with clients!

[Heather]

good book to tuck away if my children or friends need a mood lift. I mostly flipped through chapters but I feel like the teaching is universal on anxiety, depression and teaching you not only to eat a hungry fish but to be able to fish yourself for life.

enjoyed the distraction / overcoming avoidance

find the evidence

etc.

Cognitive behavioural therapy is the leading none-drug way of dealing with depression. I think it has lessons for how to look at situations for us all, but you can either read this as a self help book, or actually follow the exercises to treat yourself for depression or anxiety.

Helpful, even if you don't have severe problems. You can develop good skills that you'll probably need from a while to another.

Fantastic resource for establishing a CBT class and group. Workbook is great as well. Used it for a PTSD group as well as a DV and anger management group.
