In 2015, it was estimated that in excess of 300 million people globally suffered with depression (WHO, 2017). Roughly the same number were estimated to suffer from a range of anxiety disorders. Considering that many people experience comorbidity, simply adding these figures together to arrive at a total for common mental health disorders is not sufficient. Depression was ranked as the single largest contributor to global disability (7.5%of all years lived with a disability in 2015) with anxiety disorders ranked sixth largest contributor (3.4%of all years lived with a disability in 2015). Cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) is a therapeutic tradition that also refers to a range of interventions sharing the basic premise that psychological and emotional distress are maintained by cognitive factors. Early pioneers Albert Ellis (Ellis, 1962) and Aaron Beck (Beck, 1970) posited that maladaptive cognitions including core beliefs (also referred to as ‘schemas’) about self, others, and the world/future, when triggered by particular conditions or situations, give rise to related negative automatic thoughts, associated negative emotions, and behaviors. In essence, CBT holds that interventions and strategies aimed at changing maladaptive cognitions ultimately lead to therapeutic change in both emotional distress and dysfunctional behavior.
