Against and for CBT by Richard House

Against and for CBT by Richard House

Offers a wide range of critical perspectives on the rise of Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) from around the world and substantial responses to them. This book is suitable for psychotherapists, counsellors, students in training, and policy makers.

If, as a profession, we are going to ensure that the arrival of NICE and IAPT do not herald 'the end of the world as we know it' (Nel, Clinical Psychology Forum,194) we need to be able to argue robustly for a plurality of therapies, and be clear to our commissioners about why CBT is not simply the best thing since sliced breadThis book can help. Jenny Doe, Clinical Psychology Forum, January 2010
