Review
'This book will prove highly valuable for those training in CBT and those practicing it. It is timely given the growing interest in developing CBT to better meet the needs of the huge number of people who could benefit from it. Dr Scott's particular skill is in demystifying the process of CBT and making it relevant to those people we meet in routine clinical situations. This is a book written by a highly experienced clinician and researcher clearly at the top of his game' - Dr Jim White, Consultant Clinical Psychologist, Greater Glasgow and Clyde Health Board.
'Mike Scott brings the therapeutic arena alive using clinical examples, therapeutic transcripts and some of his own words of wisdom. A lively and accessible text, designed for CBT therapists, supervisors and trainers.' - Dr Vivien Twaddle, Consultant Clinical Psychologist, Newcastle Cognitive and Behavioural Therapies Centre.
'This book manages to balance and structure theory, research and practical detail in a guide which helps the reader to understand how to conduct cognitive behaviour therapy (CBT). Not only does it provide a clear clinical guide to treatment, but it also helps the reader to identify further resources and tools which will allow the clinician to extend the scope of their work without losing the essential empirical grounding which underpins CBT'. - Paul Salkovskis, Professor of Clinical Psychology and Clinical Director of the Centre for Anxiety Disorders and Trauma, Maudsley Hospital.
'...clear, concise and easy to use. It will help you work in a systematic way...' Clinical Psychology Forum.
Product Description
Research shows that cognitive behaviour therapy (CBT) is an effective treatment for common mental health disorders of mild to moderate severity. Simply Effective Cognitive Behaviour Therapy guides the therapist in treating clients effectively in a simple, structured, time-limited way, as well as indicating where additional treatment or referral is required, thus widening access to CBT.
In this book, Michael J. Scott provides a practical and concise guide for therapists using CBT with a range of disorders including:
- depression
- panic disorder and agoraphobia
- post-traumatic stress disorder
- generalised anxiety disorder
- obsessive compulsive disorder
- social phobia.
Simply Effective CBT is illustrated throughout with transcripts of sessions which serve as models for putting theory into practice. It provides the therapist with sufficient understanding of the cognitive theory of a disorder, enabling them to tailor the protocols provided to the needs of the individual. The appendices include a CBT Pocketbook - to guide treatment and assessment for each disorder - making it essential reading for all professionals using CBT.

Dr Scott highlights the need for a clear diagnosis. He includes in the book the 7 Minute Mental Health Screen/Audit which can be used as a simple, wide-ranging initial screen. He also provides sound advice regarding the helpfulness of using structured clinical interviews to establish which disorder(s) are present and to ensure that common-place co-existing disorders are not missed and thus left untreated. The suggested psychometrics for each disorder are well chosen and referenced, along with their strengths and pitfalls. He presents evidence where it exists and clearly shares with the reader where there are gaps. Importantly, Dr Scott is clear where CBT is not helpful and provides guidance for alternatives and referral. The importance of assessing suicide risk is covered comprehensively.
Dr Scott takes great care to share with the reader many common difficulties from the client's perspective and how to resolve them with empathy and understanding. Dr Scott does a great job keeping the process straight-forward, focused and workable.
The book consists many instructions step by step about how to do it and problems that can(and will)occur
Good part about how to make diagnosis before starting treatment
Many and short lists about what to scheck and think about before diagnosis setting, session-setting and questtioneeres for the patient
A pity they are not availebale in swedish but then not to hard to translate..
This is a very useful book for a psychodynamic pshychotherapist trying to learn more and practice cognitive behaviour therapy..
