Reihe: CBT Distinctive Features

This new edition of Mindfulness-Based Cognitive Therapy: Distinctive Features (MBCT) provides a concise, straightforward overview of MBCT, fully updated to integrate the changes that have evolved in MBCT and broader mindfulness field.

The scope of MBCT practice has spread beyond clinical contexts into a range of other settings including workplace and community contexts. Further there has been an expanding recognition of the social context within which MBCT is delivered, and with this a broadening of understanding of the personal and social drivers of depression. This requires MBCT teachers to build their understandings of trauma and issues related to equity, inclusion and diversity and to integrate these into both the content and process of the delivery of the sessions.

This book provides a basis for understanding the key theoretical and practical features of MBCT and retains its accessible and easy-to-use format that made the first edition so popular, with 30 distinctive features that characterise the approach.
