Dispute tactics. Cognitive-behavioral approach

Effective cognitive-behavioral therapy uses disputing with the client not as a cross-examination or moralizing, but as a gentle, cautious, careful, and respectful way of exploring their experiences and beliefs. The goal of the dispute is to help the person change what is within their control, in a way that is necessary to improve the quality of their life, and also courageously accept what is beyond their control, forming wisdom and the ability to distinguish between the two in the therapy process. This book can serve as a source of knowledge, skills, and abilities for developing professional competencies for both novice professionals in helping professions in the field of mental health, as well as for those who are continuing their development specifically as cognitive-behavioral therapists.
