Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and beyond (with David Burns)

Clearer Thinking with Spencer Greenberg

NOTE

Compassion and Techniques in Therapy

Compassion and warmth are vital in therapy, with 90% of the battle won by conveying these qualities to the patient. However, beyond kindness, one must possess the skills to identify and change distorted thoughts, motivate patients, and apply various techniques effectively. Having empathy alone is not sufficient; therapists need diverse skills. The speaker emphasizes the importance of bringing multiple competencies to therapy, as observed in the development of a 'Feeling Good' app based on their experience training over 50,000 individuals, with only a small percentage successfully mastering cognitive therapy or new team CBT.
