The Cognitive Behavioral Therapy Workbook for Personality Disorders: A Step-by-Step Program

by Jeffrey Wood

Symptoms of personality disorders may seem to differ widely, but all personality disorders are characterized by entrenched patterns of thinking and behavior. Chances are, if you have a personality disorder, you face feelings of uncertainty about your future and experience ongoing conflicts with your loved ones every day. These patterns may seem impossible to change, but if you're ready to overcome your symptoms and create a more balanced life, you can. The Cognitive Behavioral Therapy Workbook for Personality Disorders is packed with exercises and worksheets that enable you to put an end to the self-defeating thoughts that hold you back. Based in cognitive behavior therapy (CBT), a proven-effective treatment for personality disorders, this workbook can help you reconnect with life by teaching you a set of key skills for overcoming difficulties associated with the eleven most common personality disorders. You'll learn stress reduction, relaxation, and emotion regulation techniques, and how best to communicate and cope with others while keeping your personality-disorder-related behaviors in check.

من امتع الكتب اللى ممكن تعرف منها مفهوم ال CBT خصوصا أنه دليل عملى مرفق بأمثلة تطبيقية وجدول عمل .. شرح مختزل ودقيق لأنواع الاضطرابات النفسية واعراضها و انواع الأفكار الهدامة و النقد الذاتى المتطرف وطريقة مواجته بأفكار أكثر إيجابية و اشكال السلوكيات المضرة ومراقبتها و تغييرها ..اعتقد الحاجة الوحيدة اللى تؤخذ عليه أنه بيشجع على التشخيص الذاتى للاضطرابات من خلال قراءة السمات وده مش صح وخطر جدا لان التشخيص بيكون من قبل متخصص فقط ..
