Writing for clinicians who want to find better ways to grapple with the thorny problems of rumination and worry in their patients, Watkins says the material should be accessible and applicable to clinicians at any level from trainee to cognitive therapy supervisor. It is based on the original treatment manual he wrote for a rumination-focused cognitive-behavior therapy research trial, so is an evidence-based manual utilizing a treatment proved to be effective. His topics include why treatment targeting rumination, initial assessment, therapy rationale and goal setting, choosing treatment interventions, shifting processing style, and a case of rumination-focused cognitive-behavioral therapy from beginning to end.
