Cognitive behavioral therapy is the most widely used psychological method for combatting depression, for one simple reason: it works. In this brief workshop, Dr. Bill Knaus introduces you to cognitive, emotive, and behavioral techniques to overcome and prevent depression. He shares innovative, practical and evidence-based ideas from the newly published The Cognitive Behavioral Workbook for Depression 2nd Ed. (New Harbinger, June 2012).
