Cognitive-Behavioral Therapy: Theory into Practice provides a formal translation of CBT theory in practice by addressing how to apply core competencies for therapists/psychologists serving mental health clients. This book is designed for graduate students in training and mental health professionals who want to learn the basic foundations of applied CBT, but itis also an invaluable resource for experienced practitioners looking to improve their skills.

Each chapter also includes discussion questions and activities that provide the opportunity for students to practice each CBT skill individually or with peers, while tables and figures conceptualize and summarize key themes and skills.
