One of the newest developments in Cognitive Behavior Therapy is the integration of a recovery orientation, which decreases the emphasis on psychopathology and increases the emphasis on identifying aspirations and values, creating opportunities for clients to experience positive emotion in and between sessions, and strengthening positive beliefs through drawing adaptive conclusions about positive experiences. Originally developed by Aaron Beck and colleagues at Beck Institute for individuals diagnosed with serious mental health conditions, its principles can be used to enhance the treatment and outcome for most outpatient clients as well.

Judith S. Beck, PhD, is President of the Beck Institute for Cognitive Behavior Therapy (www.beckinstitute.org), a nonprofit organization that provides state-of-the-art training and certification in CBT to individuals and organizations, offers online courses on a variety of CBT topics, conducts research, and serves as a leading global resource in CBT. She is also Clinical Professor of Psychology in Psychiatry at the University of Pennsylvania Perelman School of Medicine. Dr. Beck has written over 100 articles and chapters as well as books, workbooks, and pamphlets for professionals and nonprofessionals, including Cognitive Behavior Therapy, Third Edition: Basics and Beyond and Cognitive Therapy for Challenging Problems: What to Do When the Basics Don’t Work. She has made hundreds of presentations nationally and internationally on various applications of CBT and is the primary developer of the Beck Institute’s online CBT training courses, which have been taken by health and mental health professionals in over 130 countries. Dr. Beck maintains a clinical caseload at the Beck Institute’s in-house clinic in suburban Philadelphia, helping clients who are experiencing a range of challenges.
