CBT is the most widely endorsed Evidence Based Treatment (EBT) for psychological disorders. This innovative volume exclusively addresses CBT Supervision, which plays a vital role in the translation of CBT from an EBT to routine practise. Supervision requires a combination of knowledge and skill – the knowledge of the appropriate CBT protocol for the situation and the skill to equip the practitioner with the competencies to deliver these protocols in the context in which they are operating. In Simply Effective CBT Supervision, Michael J. Scott provides a unique guide to the particular skills necessary to monitor the fidelity and competence with which an EBT is implemented. There is an emphasis throughout on the importance of experiential learning, with detailed transcripts of supervisor-supervisee conversations, a focus on group supervision and the management of group processes. The power differential between supervisor and supervisee is acknowledged and addressed with guidelines and safeguards that will ensure that client needs can be addressed in a spirit of collaborative empiricism, and the text also covers the importance of matching the supervisor and supervisee. The book also incorporates downloadable worksheets for supervisor and supervisee.Covering the skills necessary to be an effective CBT supervisor, this is the ideal book for current and prospective CBT supervisors looking to extend their knowledge base.

Extreme trauma can have devastating emotional, relational, physical and legal effects. This book offers hope, providing survivors, family and friends with a roadmap for managing obstacles to recovery.This second edition shifts the focus from reliving the trauma to 12 rules for ‘moving on after trauma’ by making the centrality accorded to the trauma the pre-eminent target rather than the traumatic experience itself.

The book also addresses the wider concerns of the traumatised about justice, group treatments and medication; with suggested strategies tailored to a wide range of possible traumatic responses including PTSD, specific phobias, panic disorder, depression and body dysmorphic disorder. An important focus in this new edition is the restoration of the sense of self. For those traumatised earlier on in life guidance is given on the creation of a stable sense of self.This one-of-a-kind trauma survivor guide will be beneficial for any survivor of trauma along with their fellow travellers to recovery, including family, friends, therapists, managers, clergy and lawyers. It can also serve as a companion volume to Personalising Trauma Treatment: Reframing and Reimagining (2022) for mental health professionals.

The most useful therapy is one that can be applied to a wide range of client problems, is easy to learn, and produces lasting results following a brief intervention. The cognitive-behavioural approaches described in this volume probably come nearest to this ideal.Originally published in 1989, this book begins with a description of the cognitive-behavioural revolution that had taken place in the decade prior to publication and provides therapists with the specifics of helping in four major areas: child behaviour problems, emotional disorders (depression and anxiety), interpersonal problems and addictive disorders.Coverage of the major areas of concern begins in each case with an overview of theory and research in the specific domain, followed by detailed guidance for practice. The volume represents a synthesis of the author’s research and practice with patients in inner city Liverpool and with employees referred by major employers. The strategies described have been devised to take account of a wide variety of client social contexts and service delivery settings, and the strengths, pitfalls and practicalities of group cognitive-behavioural approaches are also discussed.The reader is finally led into largely uncharted waters, the application of cognitive-behavioural approaches to schizophrenia, people with learning difficulties and the elderly.Back in print, this title will still be of interest to students and practitioners in social work, clinical psychology, and community psychiatry.
