Wonderful book for people seeking understanding and self-help strategies for mental health issues

This is a book I will listen to again. Very interesting and accessible. Beautifully written I the way stories of experiences with clients were used to illustrate concepts. It gave me a deeper understanding of how powerful CBT can be and has left me wanting to learn more.

Horrible

This book is ridiculous, not to mention extremely repetitive, and some of the examples are just stupid.
Its basically a bunch of case stories telling people their feelings are wrong and somehow expecting that that help.
Saying 'but why?' to everything doesn't change your brain...
