Managing Depression CBT Deck: Cognitive Behavioral Therapy Skills for Life-Changing Relief

Reduce the frequency, intensity, and length of depressive episodes by retraining your brain with cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) skill cards for depression.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy for Depression (CBT-D) is a proven, evidence-based form of CBT specifically designed to treat major depressive disorder and depressive symptoms. While general CBT is popular in self-help for addressing a wide range of mental health issues like anxiety and phobias, CBT-D focuses on changing the negative thought patterns, self-defeating behaviors, and heavy emotions that make depression so difficult to manage.

Offering practical strategies from three key areas of treatment--behavior, thoughts, and emotion--the Managing Depression CBT Deck can help you lift the fog of depression, even if you're struggling with hopelessness, overwhelm, and low motivation.

Managing Depression CBT Deck includes:

• 100 sturdy, color-coded cards with cognitive restructuring exercises, behavioral activation techniques, problem-solving skills, and coping strategies from CBT-D
• Special "Lifeline" cards designed to provide immediate support with effective and achievable strategies, important reminders, and recommended resources
• A beginner-friendly summary booklet featuring sensible advice, a comprehensive skills index, and practical troubleshooting tips
