Retrain Your Brain: Cognitive Behavioral Therapy in 7 Weeks: A Workbook for Managing Depression and Anxiety

It is not a very exciting and interactive book. I wasn’t satisfied with the explanation and types of exercises given. I found it very boring.

Livro de atividades para ansiedade e depressão baseado na Terapia Cognitivo-Comportamental, com intervenções cognitivas e comportamentais. O protocolo é para 7 semanas. Examente o que se propõe. A gramatura do livro é grossa, o que é muito bom. Entrega rápida.

Kurz und umfassend. Es hilft!

I actually bought Retrain Your Brain by accident — I meant to pick up a CBT workbook geared toward ADHD — but as someone who also struggles with depression, this ended up being a surprisingly valuable mistake. The book is structured in a way that’s easy to follow, practical, and designed to help you work through things at your own pace. Even though I’m still working through it, the exercises have already proven to be effective and genuinely thought‑provoking. They’re not just surface‑level prompts; they encourage you to slow down, examine patterns, and build healthier ways of responding to difficult thoughts. It’s the kind of workbook that feels like it’s guiding you rather than lecturing you. The tone is supportive without being overly clinical, and the weekly structure makes the process feel manageable instead of overwhelming. For anyone dealing with depression, it offers tools that can help you understand what’s happening internally and practice new ways of thinking. Accidental or not, this book has turned out to be a meaningful addition to my mental health toolkit.

This was by far the BEST out of four self help books I bought to help with anxiety. It explains the different types of anxiety, and their causes, and enabled me to write some notes for myself that I am certain will be a support base for me now and in the future. I feel that it has given me a foundation for reducing my anxiety, and I have seen very positive results in myself in the seven weeks that I have been using it. For me, it has been a godsend.

Excellent CBT Therapy work book. Very practical, easy to follow the steps required to achieve what one wants in a relatively short period. It is a WORK BOOK; not a novel and it works.
