This groundbreaking book explains the ‘whats’ and ‘how-tos’ of metacognitive therapy (MCT), a cutting-edge form of cognitive-behavioural therapy with a growing empirical evidence base. MCT developer Adrian Wells shows that much psychological distress results from how a person responds to negative thoughts and beliefs – for example, by ruminating or worrying – rather than the content of those thoughts. He presents innovative, practical techniques and specific protocols for addressing metacognitive processes to effectively treat generalised anxiety disorder, obsessive-compulsive disorder, post-traumatic stress disorder, and major depression. Special features include reproducible treatment plans and assessment and case formulation tools, plus a wealth of illustrative case material.
