Product Description
Review
"This book provides a skilful mix of theory and practice that should be essential reading for all wanting to learn more about MCT... I highly recommend it." – Hans M. Nordahl, Professor of Clinical Psychology, Norwegian University of Science and Technology, Trondheim, Norway
"The book is unique in that it expands upon traditional CBT and adds a dimension that may prove to establish metacognitive therapy (MCT) as a distinctive therapeutic technique. The approach offered in this book will make a definite contribution to the field of psychotherapy--for therapists who do not practice traditional CBT as well as for those who do. This book will be of particular value to persons practicing CBT who wish to understand more of the weaknesses (and presumably, therefore, the strengths) of the traditional CBT model.Represents a new paradigm in the treatment of mental disorders. Its foundations are rooted solidly in traditional psychotherapeutic thought (particularly psychoanalysis) yet also within our latest understanding of the developmental and neurological aspects of the brain. It is clearly a book for the seasoned and knowledgeable psychologist." – Richard H. Cox, President Emeritus/Professor of Forest Institute of Professional Psychology, in APA Journals, PsycCRITIQUES
Product Description
Metacognitive therapy is based on the principle that worry and rumination are universal processes leading to emotional disorder. These processes are linked to erroneous beliefs about thinking and unhelpful self-regulation strategies.
Metacognitive Therapy: Distinctive Features is an introduction to the theoretical foundations and therapeutic principles of metacognitive therapy. Divided into two sections, Theory and Practice and using thirty key points, the authors explore how metacognitive therapy can allow people to escape from repetitive thinking patterns that often lead to prolonged psychological distress.
This book is a valuable resource for both students and practitioners wishing to develop a basic understanding of metacognitive therapy and how it compares and contrasts with traditional forms of cognitive behavioural therapy.

Understanding MCT,
This review is from: Metacognitive Therapy: Distinctive Features (CBT Distinctive Features) (Paperback)
I thought that MCT was just another name for CBT, but wanted to find out more about the approach. This book makes it very clear how MCT is distinct from a theoretical and clinical perspective. It provides many useful clinical examples and clinicians will find this a great introduction to working with clients from this new perspective.

Great intro from a great series,
This review is from: Metacognitive Therapy: Distinctive Features (CBT Distinctive Features) (Kindle Edition)
Cbt is a vastly growing family of therapies which can be confusing for therapists to keep track of. Followng in the precedent set by the cbt distinctive range Well's Mct is a great introduction that provides a great introduction to the theory of this interesting clinically relevant take on information processing. Which will certainly lead me to read more about mct. However I wish following reading it I felt more informed about its evidence base.

Oh Please!,
By
This review is from: Metacognitive Therapy: Distinctive Features (CBT Distinctive Features) (Paperback)
Do we need an entire book to tell us not to ruminate about or troubles? - CBT is not all its cracked up to be, and to that end MCBT inserts a little more substance, but rather than attempt to highjack an uninteresting model, why not invent something better altogether?
