About the Author
Cognitive-Behavioral Therapy: Theory into Practice is a clearly written text that includes many concrete case examples and therapist-patient dialogues. This book will serve as a valuable resource and guide for any student and trainee in clinical psychology and counseling.
— Stefan G. Hofmann, Ph.D., professor of Psychology, Department of Psychological and Brain Sciences, Boston University
This book is a wonderful addition to the basic texts teaching cognitive-behavioral therapy (CBT). It uses video, vivid clinical examples, and learning exercises, which make it ideally suited as a classroom text. One of its most distinguishing features is the great care taken to provide explicit, step-by-step instructions to the novice therapist.
— Donna M. Sudak, MD, president, American Association of Directors of Psychiatric Residency Training; and professor of Psychiatry, interim director of Training, and director of Psychotherapy Training, Drexel University
Dr. Volungis has produced an excellent resource for teaching CBT to evolving practitioners. Graduate psychology students and psychiatric residents in particular (as well as their instructors) will be well-served by its logical organization and completeness. I am looking forward to using it with our trainees.
— Robert Carey, PhD, ABPP, associate clinical professor, University of Massachusetts Medical School
Cognitive-Behavioral Therapy presents the fundamentals of CBT and guides the reader in understanding how to implement these principles with sensitivity and flexibility. Volungis clearly explains both the science and art of conducting CBT, guiding the reader through the process of understanding and developing a wide range of skills that are essential to skillful conducting. This book will be valuable for students who are beginning to develop their skills and seasoned clinicians who are interested in refining their skills. It is an excellent resource for graduate students and experienced professionals who want to provide excellent CBT for their clients.
— Leonard A. Doerfler, PhD, professor and director, Counseling Psychology Program, Assumption College
