Summary of David D. Burns's Ten Days to Self-Esteem

Please note: This is a companion version & not the original book. Book Preview:

#1 After you introduce yourself, ask the group members to introduce themselves and describe briefly what they do and how they learned about the program. Then ask them about their goals for Ten Days to Self-esteem. They should develop greater self-confidence and better personal relationships, overcome depression, or learn to be more productive and less perfectionistic.

#2 therapists should be open to criticism and willing to change their practices based on the feedback they receive from their clients. The therapist should explain the group’s administrative procedures, including the fees and the Deposit System.

#3 The participants should bring Ten Days to Self-esteem to each session. They should read each step and do as many of the exercises as possible before the session. They should report their total scores to you at the beginning of each session.

#4 The Burns Anxiety Inventory, the Burns Depression Checklist, and the Relationship Satisfaction Scale can be used to measure the progress of clients throughout therapy. They are well received by clients, and statistical analysis confirms they are surprisingly accurate.
