Loved this workbook and have already recommended it to many of my clients!! Dr. Tompkins has taken many familiar CBT concepts and organized them in a “user-friendly” way. Not only is it an excellent resource for therapists, but also a very clear step-by-step guide for clients who want to have a better understanding of CBT. If someone were to follow The Cognitive Behavioral Therapy Workbook on their own, they would have a big head start on “becoming their own therapist” – which is one of the goals of CBT!
Kudos to Dr. Tompkins for another great contribution to our therapy world!
I returned only because it didn’t apply to Case Management Skills Training, but rather Licenced Therapists
This clear, easy-to-follow, and thoughtful transdiagnostic workbook includes all of the important elements of CBT. By breaking the book into sections from motivation, mindfulness, and thinking to interpersonal effectiveness, relaxation, and time management Tompkins distills complicated concepts into useful and accessible exercises and practices. By moving the reader along through the key components of good, evidence-based CBT, this workbook is highly effective and user-friendly!
As Stevo’s Novel Ideas, I am a long-time book reviewer, member of the media, an Influencer, and a content provider. I received this book as a review copy from either the author, the publisher or a publicist. I have not been compensated for this recommendation. I have given it a Best of the Best designation for the month of September, 2022, as it stands heads above other recently published books on this topic or of this genre.
Another clear, concise CBT workbook written by Michael Tompkins. As always, Tompkins not only does a great job of describing the core CBT skills, but also provides forms and tips to practice the skills and to make them part of your daily life. Unique to this book, Tompkins teaches strategies that can be applied to multiple emotional problems instead of just one specific problem, ie, anxiety. “The Cognitive Behavioral Therapy Workbook” is a fantastic resource for clients in CBT therapy, CBT clinicians, and anyone interested in using more CBT skills in their lives.
