"Using CBT in General Practice" provides general practitioners with an overview of the basic principles of CBT and shows how these principles can be applied within a typical 10 minute consultation. The book is written in a user-friendly, interactive and practical style and focuses on realistic ways to make CBT work by helping patients to make positive changes to their lives. Key features include: case examples to highlight how the techniques can be applied in practice for patients with particular problems or clinical conditions; problem solving sections describe how to manage time constraints; a new consultation model that can be used to implement CBT; and overviews of the major clinical psychological conditions that can be treated using CBT. "Using CBT in General Practice" uniquely provides the practical advice needed to implement CBT within the time constraints of a busy practice - it is therefore essential reading for all GPs who must now offer CBT as a treatment option. As this is a practical manual and not just a book of theory, it will also appeal to other professionals involved in the management of patients with psychological problems such as health visitors, practice nurses, and palliative care doctors.
