Here's the quickest way...

http://www.cognitivetherapy.com/

The basic idea is for the patient to learn to identify beliefs or thoughts that are negative and to turn them into posittive ones. Do a search on the site, there have been a couple of long threads about CBT recently. I haven't done much of it, but I took an anger management class that was based on CBT methods that worked great.

attentionThis is an old thread. You probably should not post your reply to it, as the original poster is unlikely to see it.
