How to Beat Depression One Step at a Time
The IAPT programme initiated in 2008 offers both high-intensity and low-intensity therapy. There are currently no self-help materials catering for low-intensity patients. This is the first in a new series of short self-help books for low intensity patients covering topics such as OCD; generalised anxiety; and panic and agoraphobia. The government continues to invest in IAPT with the focus shifting towards having more low-intensity workers.
Based upon an evidence based cognitive behavioural therapy approach this book is written in a friendly engaging (and jargon-free!) style and encourages interactive reading through tables illustrations and worksheets. Real life case studies illustrate the use of each intervention and demonstrate how a patient can work through an issue.
