Editorial Reviews

Review
"One of the most important treatment developments in recent years has been the theoretical and empirical elaboration of mindfulness and acceptance into evidence-based, cognitive-behavioral protocols. Books on this topic, however, have typically focused either on general theory or on clinical applications to narrow segments of psychopathology. Now Hayes, Follette, and Linehan--three of the most creative thinkers in this area--have produced a volume surveying the current status of these new intervention strategies across the wide spectrum of psychopathology. Anyone seeking to remain up to date on the applications of these exciting new procedures with a variety of client problems will want to have this book close at hand."--David H. Barlow, PhD, Center for Anxiety and Related Disorders and Department of Psychology, Boston University

"An excellent compilation of many innovative techniques in cognitive-behavioral therapy. Very useful for cognitive-behavioral and other kinds of therapists."--Albert Ellis, PhD, Albert Ellis Institute

"Some of today's most innovative scientist-practitioners provide an in-depth examination of the many ways that the concepts of mindfulness and acceptance are being integrated into cognitive-behavioral therapy, which hitherto has had little systematic contact with experiential therapies and Eastern philosophies. This book will be of interest to all mental health professionals concerned with enhancing therapeutic change in their patients and with furthering their own personal development. Provocative and at times very wise, this is 'must' reading for researchers and clinicians alike, inviting critical consideration of new and promising ideas and procedures. It is an appropriate text for graduate-level courses in psychotherapy, particularly within clinical psychology programs, and would serve as an excellent basis for a special-topic seminar on mindfulness and acceptance therapies."--Gerald C. Davison, PhD, Department of Psychology, University of Southern California


"Hayes et al. have produced a collection of applied research articles filled with golden nuggets of insights, research, and practice applications for a variety of common clinical issues. These scientist-practitioners continue to demonstrate that their variations of acceptance and change-based strategies have influenced in significant ways not only the traditional cognitive-behavioral based therapeutic traditions but have also--and most importantly--improved the quality of their client's lives."--Journal of Marital and Family Therapy
 
"Fascinating, useful, and thought-provoking."--Metapsychology

"An excellent introduction."--APA PsycCRITIQUES

"Many therapists and clinicians have encountered discussions about the concepts of mindfulness, acceptance and commitment within individual and group psychotherapy. Highly recommended, this book will acquaint you with contemporary thinking about the topic, research findings and future directions."--New England Psychologist

"...a rich resource for surveying the theoretical and clinical implications of third-wave behavior therapies....A strength of this volume lies in the compilation of related theoretical models that appear to challenge our thinking about contemporary clinical science and practice."--the Behavior Therapist


"In this exciting new book, Hayes et al. have brought together the leading proponents of mindfulness and acceptance-based CBT approaches, to provide a comprehensive overview of this growing and increasingly influential area....a state-of-the-art review of mindfulness-and acceptance-based approaches to psychological disorders. It is a useful primer for clinicians wishing to familiarize themselves with these approaches. For those familiar with DBT, MBCT and ACT, the chapters describing how the principles of mindfulness and acceptance can be applied across a range of different disorders will be of interest."--European Eating Disorders Review

"This volume would make an excellent text for a graduate level seminar on CBT and a valued addition to the bookshelf of many practitioners regardless of their theoretical persuasion."--Bulletin of the Menninger Clinic

"The book is a well-organized, visionary, and pragmatic presentation of multiple new concepts....This book is one not only to read but also to keep on the shelf for reopening by psychiatrists, psychologists, social workers, nurses, and other mental health clinicians who treat, teach, and just enjoy a good adventure of expanding the mind."--Psychiatric Services
 
"This is an outstanding and potentially pivotal book, a unique series of therapeutic techniques emphasizing mindfulness, acceptance, values, spirituality, meditations, emotional deepening, focus on the present with an emphasis on the emerging therapeutic relationship....Hayes, Follette, and Linehan have recruited an impressive list of cutting-edge researchers and practitioners to provide an overview of the current state-of-the-art in what is being termed third generation behavior therapy....Any graduate doctorate program in psychology with a behavioral orientation wishing to insure contact with up-to-date thinking would need this book as part of its coursework. This book will be valuable to both starting therapists and those who have been in practice for many years....This book is highly valuable....The concepts and procedures developed are easily adapted to a child and adolescent population....Given the excitement within its pages and the profound impact it may have, it may represent one of the best values in books available today."--Child & Family Behavior Therapy
 
"This book may appeal especially to mental health professionals who are interested in alternative methods for helping patients with problems that may not be solved with more well-known methods, such as systematic desensitisation for anxiety disorder or medication for clinical depression."--British Journal of Guidance and Counselling
 
"The use of acceptance and mindfulness is presented...by an impressive array of authors and researchers in numerous domains including the treatment of refractory depression, trauma, generalized anxiety disorder, eating disorders, alcohol and drug use disorders, and couples therapy."--Journal of Trauma Practice
 
"This excellent book provides a very readable overview of how the 'third wave' behavioral and cognitive therapies such as ACT, MBCT, and DBT are integrating the concepts of mindfulness, acceptance, the therapeutic relationship, values, spirituality, and meditation into a clinical practice....Heaving utilized some of the ideas with current clients, I would highly recommend this inspiring book to other clinicians as an aid to reflecting on their clinical practice. It is both a readable overview and a useful reference text of clinical wisdom and advances in research."--Journal of Critical Psychology, Counselling, and Psychotherapy



Product Description
This volume examines a number of increasingly popular therapies that have emerged over the last decade and that share an emphasis on such nontraditional themes as mindfulness, acceptance, relationship, values, and spirituality. Leading scientist-practitioners provide detailed descriptions of their respective approaches, discussing theoretical and empirical bases as well as clinical methods and goals. Promising applications are presented for treating a variety of challenging clinical issues and problems, including depression, anxiety, couple conflict, PTSD, eating disorders, and substance abuse. Illuminated are the ways in which indirect and experiential change strategies are being integrated with established cognitive and behavioral techniques--and what this means for the future of psychotherapy research and practice.

4.0 out of 5 stars a fine review of current thinking on acceptance, mindfulness, and CBT, December 22, 2006
By Thomas Rodebaugh (st. louis, MO) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
i found the other review of this book so perplexing, i felt i had to say something. this will be a very useful book to folks who are interested in how concepts of acceptance and mindfulness can be integrated with, or change for the better, cognitive behavioral treatments. if you have no idea what the previous sentence means, then you are probably not one of those folks!
