"With contributions from a stellar array of researchers and clinicians whose work has been directly influenced by cognitive therapy founder Aaron T. Beck, this volume presents the latest advances in science and practice in this rapidly changing field. Described are new and effective ways of understanding and treating clients suffering from a wide range of affective, anxiety, and personality disorders. The current status of basic cognitive therapy principles and models is discussed, and important theoretical and clinical refinements are elaborated. Other topics covered in this cutting-edge text include innovative applications for children and adolescents, couples, and families, as well as progress that has been made in integrating cognitive therapy with other treatments, such as pharmacotherapy."--Publisher description.
