It is the most widely used CBT self-help tool and a core component of the therapy protocols with the strongest evidence base. Used consistently, it trains the skill of cognitive evaluation until it becomes partly automatic. - The Formula First-Session Task and Between-Session Noticing
Assign between-session observation tasks that direct attention toward what’s already working.
