This treatment manual provides cognitive behavioral therapists with the inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) specific knowledge and content they need to work with this patient population.

Understanding the very real challenges of living with an IBD, and what sorts of catastrophic thoughts and maladaptive avoidance behaviors patients might have, can make therapy more focused, efficient, and effective. This manual encourages flexible, modular deployment of numerous empirically supported principles, techniques, and interventions, and includes five treatment protocols with hypothetical patients.

This book is essential for therapists with training in cognitive behavioral therapy who are interested in expanding their practice competence to work with patients with GI disorders, including inflammatory bowel disease.
