Yes, I agree with you Marco, Steve's last post is (also for me) the clearest and most concise description of the philosophical differences between cognitive...

I know-you're right. Just, there is not so much freedom of choice. I think that is why there is not any work on that in that therapy. Jason ...

Hello BSG - and listserv! I am excited to be starting off the discussion for this book. I received the book several days ago and as I browsed through it it...
My reflections and thoughts on the Intro: I really enjoy the straightforward way in which Jonas & Niklas lay out behaviorism. When I was reading the...
Would it be too far afield for someone with philosophy and communication skills to make this constructionist/objectivist distinction clearer? Kohlenberg refers...

Hi folks, well here goes. I am pleased to be here and hoping to gain heaps from this discussion. I practise in the CBT model and find it inadequate for a whole...
Hi all, I've got a very basic question that I'm about to ask, knowing that it's going to look stupid, AND am choosing to do this instead of staying stupid. Ok,...
Sorry for this tangential email, but I've been meaning to ask for ages: can someone please explain the term 'straw man'. I get that it means a false argument -...

Hi Carla, A brief and hopefully sensible response while I get ready for a 10am client. Firstly, have a look at the Intro and Chapter 1 of Ramnero and Torneke...

Hi John, I love it! But one question: what if the innocent patient is supposed to be on Zoloft regularly, Wellbutrin as needed one hour prior to sex, and Xanax...
I'd ask it this way. What will work better in this situation AND others like it, a Cfunc move or a Crel move. Notice that, "I am looking at a computer" while...
Hi Harold. The NeuroCognitive and Behavioural model we are developing and testing in Paris maybe sheds an additional light on the question: "Why do we...
