Abstract

For the newly trained Cognitive Behavioural Therapist, there are a wealth of challenges and difficulties faced when trying and applying newly acquired skills in the outside world. These might include the stresses of working in isolation, finding it difficult to widen their scope, consult with other CBT therapists, seeking advice on setting up group therapy, possible conflicts between ethical practice and theory, how to retain personal integrity as a therapist while maintaining a viable business practice, dealing with diverse communities, or becoming a supervisor. The Oxford Guide to Surviving CBT Practice is the one-stop resource for the newly trained therapist. It offers practical guidance on a range of issues and challenges faced by the therapist. Showcasing the authors’ vast experience of training and practising CBT, it draws on real life situations to help the reader hone and develop their skills, adjust to life as a therapist, and maintain a successful and satisfying career whilst helping others.

Keywords: Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, CBT, group therapy, ethical practice
