This celebrated publication, now in a new edition, has introduced tens of thousands of therapists to mindfulness-based cognitive therapy (MBCT) for depression, a validated 8-week treatment. The authors describe the “whys” and “how-tos” of using mindfulness techniques and cognitive therapies that have been found to improve depression recovery and avoid recurrence. Clinicians are also guided to practice mindfulness themselves, a crucial requirement to teaching others. Forty-five reproducible handouts are included. Purchasers have access to a companion website that includes digital audio recordings of the guided mindfulness activities (meditations and mindful movement), as well as all of the reproducibles, all of which are available to download and print in a compact 8 1/2″ x 11″ size. Clients can access the audio recordings exclusively through a different website.
