This self-help style book is superior to the much lauded "Mind Over Mood" (loved by CBT purists), as it expands the CBT repetoire, and much better tailors interventions to address anxiety.

If you want to your client to master only "thought records", go for mind over mood, but for tailored treatment of anxiety this book is the gold standard in the self-help or therapist collaborative genre.

I think everyone could benefit from this book as we all can use tips for dealing with stress/anxiety. The only reason I gave 4 instead of 5 stars is because an index is missing from back of book. It is very difficult to refer back to something and I find myself having to flip through pages constantly.

This is a very useful resource for those who prefer to learn about themselves on their own, without a therapist, or even in combination with therapy. It teaches alot about the various phobias and anxiety issues, why the exist, and what can be done to work through them. The book is quite lengthy, and more or less like a text book, so it may be a heavy read for those who are not prepared to do so.
There are a number of personal reflection areas, as well as homework to help one along the way to recovery and understanding.

This book may also be useful for a spouse to read if their loved one is suffering from an anxiety or phobia. It will help explain what's "wrong" and allow them to feel as if they can better understand the situation.

I bought the book to deal with a problem with anxiety that I recently developed and following the guidelines and practicing the things the author reccomends has helped me a lot.

I have used this book with counselling clients and recommended it to family and friends; all have found it to be very useful. There are practical ideas to use to reduce worries and increase positive thoughts.

This book arrived within a couple of days - much faster than expected! Also came exactly as shown and in new condition. Great buy!

I ordered this book on a Tuesday and chose express shipping for a few extra bucks. It was here by Thursday which was great. Brand new book in perfect condition. Thank you.
