TTC - Cognitive Behavioral Therapy for Daily Life
Jason M. Satterfield, Ph.D.
TTC The Great Courses

You talk to yourself all day long. We all do. Most of what we say carries no emotional weight: “Don’t forget to pick up the milk and bread.” Or, “I want to mention that book to my brother.” But sometimes, what we tell ourselves affects the very quality of our lives. We tell ourselves that we aren’t good enough, that our circumstances define us, that we can’t fix or change the things that seem to be weighing us down. This negative self-talk can follow us all day long and deeply impact our lives, whether we notice it or not.

How do we combat this negativity, especially when we seem to carry it around without really realizing the effect it can have on our daily life and its impact our mental health and happiness?

In the 24 compelling half-hour lectures of Cognitive Behavioral Therapy for Daily Life, Professor Jason Satterfield will help you build your own cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) toolbox, giving you the skills you need to change those stories that hold you back and that keep you from experiencing your fullest life possible. Just like your physical toolbox, you’ll learn exactly which tools to gather and how and when to use each one most effectively. These tools aren’t magical quick-fixes, and they can’t accomplish everything you might want. But in using them appropriately, you will be building a life that is both more powerful and more peaceful than you had ever imagined
