This book provides a lot of useful materials for group treatment in CBT principles. It contains many figures that bring CBT models and treatment more assessible to the patients. Please refer it before starting the group treatment.

I'm a Korean psychiatrist. Recently, I have finished my translation draft on this book.
Just having this book will make you to treat the patients with depression, anxiety, or uncontrollable anger in group.
The book is, in fact, a complete script. So If there were a blind curtain between the therapist and patients, all you have to do would be that you just read the scritpt in the book as writen!!
I also think that this book will help lay persons correct their negative thoughts to a more adaptive and healthier ones, although it was written primarily for therapists.

For full-time practicing cognitive therapists who want a resource for their group sessions, I know of no better compilation than this work. It is comprehensive, well written, and eminently useable.
