Description: The book contains contributions from highly experienced practitioner-researchers, who offer an informed approach to cognitively based treatments for a wide range of clinical problems. Since cognitive therapy is usually understood to be language based, the communication difficulties associated with this population make its use a challenging and fascinating topic.

Cognitive-Behaviour Therapy for People with Learning Disabilities provides a wealth of practical examples for training and will be invaluable to clinical psychologists, psychiatrists and all researchers and practitioners who work with people with learning disabilities.
