I have curated a list of reading material that help my clients experience positive outcomes prior to even starting active therapy work and progress rapidly through treatment:
Anxiety and Depression
“(In Feeling Great,)… Dr. Burns conveys the message that your suffering as well as your negative thoughts and feelings are not symptoms of mental disorder but instead are the expression of what is most awesome and beautiful about you. — Sara Verduzco Shane, LMFT”

Anxiety
“When Panic Attacks will give you the ammunition to quickly defeat every conceivable kind of anxiety…” (Burns, 2006)
Relationships
“… in Feeling Good Together, he [Dr. David Burns] presents Cognitive Interpersonal Therapy, a radical new approach that will help you transform troubled. conflicted relationships into successful, happy ones.” (Burns, 2008).
Depression
“This best-selling book has sold over 4 million copies worldwide to date. In a recent national survey of mental health professionals, Feeling Good was rated #1—out of a list of 1000 books—as the most frequently recommended self-help book on depression in the United States.”
