When people are plagued by anxiety or depression, they often see their reality through a distorted lens. Their thoughts, feelings, and behaviors spiral downward as a result. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy has proven to be the most effective means to combat this. Dr. Seth Gillihan has successfully applied it in his practice for years and has developed a step-by-step 7-week plan with an interactive workbook. The goal of this plan is to offer positive alternatives to thoughts, leading to new behaviors that help overcome anxiety and depression. With this toolkit, the reader will become their own therapist and will face daily challenges with confidence and strength.
