N2  - "CBT for Long-Term Conditions and Medically Unexplained Symptoms describes how Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) can be used for people with a co-morbid long-term physical health condition (LTC), with depression or medically unexplained symptoms (MUS). The book teaches cognitive behavioural therapists and other clinicians to help patients deal with the psychological aspects of physical symptoms, whatever their cause. It is divided into three sections, beginning with core skills for working with people with LTC and MUS. This includes assessment, formulation and goal setting. Section two focuses on CBT for LTC and includes chapters on low intensity interventions, working with depression and anxiety using protocols, and a consideration of an identity and strengths-based approach to working with LTC. The final section provides details of a formulation driven approach to working with MUS, broken down into individual chapters on working with behaviours, cognitions and emotions. With numerous case examples, this book provides accessible and practical guidance for mental health professionals, particularly CBT practitioners, working with anyone with long-term conditions or medically unexplained symptoms (MUS)"--
