Dryden's book How to Get the Most Out of CBT: A Client's Guide fills a unique and much neglected niche. there are nowadays many quality, evidence-based book on self help, written for the clients, but there has been little for the person who after perhaps reading one or several self-help books, decides they need, after all, to seek a professional therapist. At this point they will usually have a host of questions and worries: what kind of therapist, what kind of therapy, what can I expect, what will be expected of me. Dryden address all these concerns in an accessible and engaging writing style, covering comprehensively most if not all the points a potential client might have in mind, plus many others he or she would be advised to think about.
