Reviews
[-] 085015 - Cognitive Behavioral Therapy & Mindfulness Toolbox
“Richard Sears is that rare psychologist and mindfulness trainer who brings decades of authentic training in classical
meditation methods into contact with the razor’s edge of our most recent research developments. Having a chance
to train with Richard is a gift, and this book is like your own private session of advanced mindfulness work with a
master teacher. This book has my highest recommendation.”
-Dennis Tirch, PhD, author of 6 books, Founding Director, The Center for Compassion Focused Therapy
“This is a treasure trove for clinicians who wish to integrate first, second and third wave cognitive-behavioral therapies in their work. Dr. Sears is a master clinician and meditation teacher who skillfully synthesized the essence of these approaches in succinct and scientifically grounded text. He also created a collection of handouts that are both engaging and simple to use. Both the handouts and the resources Dr. Sears has assembled will help clinicians and their clients effectively address many of the issues commonly brought to therapy.”
