This book describes integrative models and treatments for clinical depression based on the biopsychosocial model and cognitive behavior therapy combined with other evidence-based approaches.

Keith Dobson synthesizes decades of professional experience into this comprehensive guide that follows the therapy process from beginning to end. He starts with a theoretical overview of depression, including associated features, risk and resiliency factors, and comparing various models of depression.

At the book's heart are the clinical chapters that first review the intake process, which includes a detailed review of the interview process, formulating an early case conceptualization, and optimizing the client's involvement. Dobson then reviews an organizational model for selecting which issues to focus on and the most optimal interventions to implement. He also describes common strategies for targeting clients' underlying behaviors and cognitions, developing problem-solving skills, and modifying maladaptive thoughts and schemas. Guidelines for ending therapy and preventing relapse are also provided, as are considerations related to comorbid disorders, clients' significant others, and in-person vs. distance treatment.

Case examples following two clients recur across chapters bring the therapy process to life.
