Cognitive behavior therapy for perfectionism is shown to be effective, including for targeting psychiatric symptoms and when delivered via the Internet (iCBT-P). However, few studies have compared it to an active comparator. The current study randomly assigned 138 participants seeking help for perfectionism to iCBT-P or Internet-based Unified Protocol (iUP).

Digital cognitive behavioural therapy for insomnia reduces insomnia in nurses suffering from shift work disorder: A randomised-controlled pilot trial
J Sleep Res. 2024 Mar 14:e14193. doi: 10.1111/jsr.14193. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTInsomnia is a primary symptom of shift work disorder, yet it remains undertreated. This randomised-controlled pilot trial examined the efficacy of a digital, guided cognitive behavioural therapy for insomnia adapted to shift work (SleepCare) in nurses with shift work disorder. The hypothesis was that SleepCare reduces insomnia severity compared with a waitlist control condition. A total of 46 unmedicated nurses suffering from shift work disorder with insomnia (age: 39.7 ± 12.1 years; 80.4% female) were randomised to the SleepCare group ...

Principles over Process: Fifty Years a Cognitive Therapist
AbstractThe most important lesson that I have learned in my half century as a therapist (and therapy researcher) is that principles matter more than processes. I had the great good fortune to arrive in Philadelphia at a time when Beck and colleagues were just beginning to test the efficacy of cognitive therapy for depression and what I learned was that helping clients (and myself) get the better of depression involved two main principles: (1) when in doubt do whatever you would have done if you were not depressed (behavioral); and (2) do not believe everything you think - check it out (cognitive). A third major principle i...

Cognitive behavioural therapy added to standard care for first-episode and recent-onset psychosis
CONCLUSIONS: This review synthesised the latest evidence on CBT added to standard care for people with a first-episode or recent-onset psychosis. The evidence identified by this review suggests that people with a first-episode or recent-onset psychosis may benefit from CBT additionally to standard care for multiple outcomes (overall, positive, negative and depressive symptoms of schizophrenia, global state and functioning). Future studies should better define this population, for which often heterogeneous definitions are used.PMID:38470162 | DOI:10.1002/14651858.CD015331.pub2 (Source: Cochrane Database of Systematic Reviews)
