For Every Stage of Practice

🌿
New Therapists & Interns
Gain the confidence to explain CBT concepts clearly from day one. As one reviewer said: “Wish I had this when I was just an intern — this is such an enormous help!”
🏥
Seasoned Clinicians
Streamline psychoeducation in session. Works beautifully for in-person and telehealth settings. Multiple clinicians report keeping it in heavy rotation.
👨️
Specialized Populations
Especially effective with visual learners, geriatric populations, and clients who need to “see” rather than just hear concepts to make them stick.
📚
Self-Help Seekers
Clear enough that even individuals exploring CBT on their own — or with a family member — can work through the diagrams to understand their own patterns.

★★★★★
Excellent user friendly therapy resource
AKCMESOAR  ·  April 2026  ·  ✓ Verified Purchase
This has become a valuable tool to use with my patients. It is concrete in its presentation while providing valuable education that I can review in person more easily by design. It also can be copied to allow for materials to be taken home for reference and review. Very practical resource!
★★★★★
Wish I had this years ago
Mark M  ·  December 2023  ·  ✓ Verified Purchase
Wish I had this years ago when I was just an intern. This is such an enormous help both to me and to my clients! I highly recommend this whether you’re starting out as a CBT therapist, a practicing professional, or even someone who is a patient being treated with CBT. Outstanding tool.
★★★★★
Great visual reference for geriatric populations
Darin/Lena Braunecker  ·  April 2025  ·  ✓ Verified Purchase
It’s a great visual reference — I work with the geriatric population and usually have handouts or a visual representation to go along with explaining an intervention or theory. One side is glossy color and the back side is gray scale so you can see what they are seeing.
★★★★★
A must-have for Marriage & Family Therapists
Amazon Customer  ·  July 2022  ·  ✓ Verified Purchase
I rarely write reviews but I love this. As a Marriage Family Therapist, I use this with clients as well as the deck of cards from the same author. Very easy to use and I could see that even a client could use this on their own. Very user friendly. Love it! Perfect size too.
★★★★★
What a great way to educate and get clients involved
dpenny  ·  April 2022  ·  ✓ Verified Purchase
This chart gives the clients a real look at what we are trying to accomplish and why. This also helps those learners who are not able to just hear but need to see to understand.
★★★★★
Perfect for telehealth & in-person sessions
Rachel  ·  October 2021  ·  ✓ Verified Purchase
I love this. I used it with patients from day one. Visually it has a great layout and it helps bring CBT to life, especially for telehealth sessions. Seth is doing a great job at crafting practical helpful resources for therapists. This will be in heavy rotation for my practice!
★★★★★
Better than I expected — absolutely love this
Kat S  ·  August 2024  ·  Australia  ·  ✓ Verified Purchase
What an amazing product. I’m really enjoying using it. It arrived quickly and is better than I expected. Will definitely be getting more on different topics.
★★★★★
Opened up a powerful family conversation
Wonderful  ·  March 2026  ·  Australia  ·  ✓ Verified Purchase
The first day it arrived I sat down flipping through it with my partner, and it inadvertently helped him too — opening up that he was feeling depressed. He was feeling so much better addressing the cognitive distortions in a light and loving manner.
★★★★★
Great addition to my therapy sessions!
Angela D. Hull  ·  August 2024  ·  ✓ Verified Purchase
This item is sturdy and easy to use. I have used it many times when explaining CBT to my clients and they find it easy to follow and helpful.
