Testing Automatic Thoughts with Thought Records
© Center for Cognitive Therapy / www.padesky.com
Christine Padesky helps a depressed client explore her "hot thoughts" using the 7 column thought record.
Watch an entire therapy session with narrative commentary about each section of the thought record.
This session is a vivid demonstration of the integration of technique with a collaborative therapy alliance.
Viewers comment on the helpfulness of this video to demonstrate the pacing and timing of a therapy session when using a thought record. It has been especially helpful to see how empathic and conversational the therapy session can be even while teaching skills in a structured way.
Includes close-up shots of client and therapist notes.
