The CBT Deck: 101 Practices to Improve Thoughts, Be in the Moment & Take Action in Your Life

Very helpful!! The exercises are nicely written, understandable and easy to practice.

Love using this with my clients, very useful

If you’re looking to use the principles of cognitive behavioral therapy in your daily life, you’ll love The CBT Deck! In each card, Dr. Gillihan presents a concept and exercise from his “Think, Act, Be” model to help you think in useful ways, act with purpose, and be mindful of your inner experience and the world around you. If you have Dr. Gillihan’s book, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy Made Simple, you’ll find The CBT Deck to be an invaluable companion. As a clinical psychologist, I’m excited to recommend these cards to clients looking for easy ways to use CBT principles daily. I plan to keep the deck on my coffee table for clients to look through before and after we meet. A final note—for therapists and clients alike, The CBT Deck offers countless useful strategies that can be used as an adjunct to therapy, but even if you’re new to CBT, or just curious about its methods, Dr. Gillihan’s clear, engaging, and supportive writing style will help you quickly understand the concepts and enhance your motivation to apply the ready-to-use tools. This is a great resource!

Useful cards but very cheap box which kind of irks me. Regardless I do like the simplicity of them and it isn’t too wordy.

Very nice card deck!!

This book is very helpful. It has a bunch of activities to complete that will help you improve your mental health. I highly recommend it.

I am a counselor. I literally opened the box. Excited because I intended to do CBT with someone for the first time and I thought the card idea was great. After flipping through them, I felt like it was more of a Mindfulness box packaged as CBT. I returned it without ever using it

A friend and I use these cards together to work on different aspects of our anxiety and self esteem issues. The cards are very helpful to keep momentum going when you're between therapy sessions or just wanting to put some thought into how you're doing! They are thoughtful, pointed and completely doable on a daily basis! Great set and well worth having!

Found it very helpful (much more helpful than any of the books on CBT) in incorporating the cbt principles in your life. Each card consists of one concrete simple task (and it is convenient that it is in a card form as you can keep it on a desk as a reminder throughout your day or put in a wallet, etc)

fantastic self help tool.

Haven't used it a lot in work, I am not a cbt practitioner yet, however it seems like a good tool potentially. I work with MACards more often (metaphorical assotiative cards). Wish the author offered some kind of video or workshop with tips for using the deck with clients and in personal development. Might use this deck for myself and Life in Glow Wellness youtube vlog. There were also a couple of other decks in the series.

Fantastic product. Very useful.

As a Social Worker and Psychotherapist I love love this deck. I use this deck all the time with my clients and students. It helps make my sessions more effective. Get them.
