Description
An authoritative introduction to behavior therapy as well as a comprehensive resource for those with a firm background in this area.
This book clearly and methodically introduces the behavioral perspective to readers new to cognitive-behavioral therapy, while also applying a fresh lens for connecting theory, research, and practice for more experienced practitioners. Instead of matching interventions with client populations or diagnoses, the authors emphasize a framework and set of principles that are broadly applicable to adult clients. Readers will learn how therapists use a behavioral perspective to conceptualize their clients, their problem areas, and the therapeutic process. The chapters facilitate systematic, coherent, and flexible thinking about people and their behavior, and they offer guidance for addressing both common and novel clinical problems not addressed in standard therapy manuals.
This third edition includes:
New chapters on problem-solving therapies, self-management interventions, and contemporary ethical and professional issues.
A renewed focus on interventions for strengthening mindfulness and acceptance skills.
Expanded discussions of behavioral case formulation and treatment planning.
Extensive updates in clinical research.

Reviews / Votes
The third edition of Behavioral Interventions in Cognitive Behavior Therapy reflects a comprehensive, inclusive, and thoughtful approach to scaffolding essential competencies for learners of cognitive behavior therapies. Farmer and Chapman illustrate the behavioral science framework, teach functional analyses, and facilitate a conceptual understanding of common components of cognitive behavior therapies for flexible, individually tailored application in an approachable and highly readable manner. These foundations, the broad range of assessment and intervention techniques, and related sociocultural and ethical considerations are invaluable for those already practicing evidence-based cognitive behavior therapies as well as learners of modular, process-based therapy. - Claudia Drossel, PhD, PhD, Associate Professor, Department of Psychology, Eastern Michigan University, Ypsilanti, MI, United States This third edition of Farmer and Chapman amp rsquo s exceptional text is up-to-date and filled with overviews of theory, research, and many guidelines for competent application of the behavioral strategies in cognitive behavior therapy. Encompassing a range of topics, from cultural humility to balancing functional approaches with traditional categorical diagnoses, the book will be a highly valued reference for students and new cognitive behavioral therapists. It is an excellent reminder for those who have been in the field for some time, and an informative and enjoyable amp quot nerd amp quot read for the seasoned expert. - Christopher Martell, PhD, ABPP, Professor of Practice and Clinic Director, Psychological Services Center, Department of Psychological and Brain Sciences, University of Massachusetts Amherst, Amherst, MA, United StatesMore details
