This episode is dedicated to Dr. Aaron T. Beck, the father of cognitive behavioral therapy. His incredible work lives on.

My guest today is Dr. Seth Gillihan, a licensed psychologist specializing in mindfulness-centered cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT). Join us as we discuss this incredibly beneficial type of therapy and hear how he has applied CBT in his own life to cope with a challenging medical illness.

Dr. Gillihan is the author of multiple books on mindfulness and CBT, including Cognitive Behavioral Therapy Made Simple and A Mindful Year, is Head of Therapy with the self-therapy app Bloom, and hosts the Think Act Be podcast. He was a full-time faculty member at the University of Pennsylvania from 2008 to 2012, where he completed his doctorate, and has been in private practice since 2012.
