Teaching and Supervising Cognitive Behavioral Therapy is the first comprehensive text to provide empirically validated, effective training and supervisory approaches to teachers and supervisors from a variety of disciplines that use a cognitive behavior therapy (CBT) approach. Despite the substantial interest in the practice of cognitive behavioral therapy, until recently there has not been a corresponding pursuit of evidence-informed training and dissemination methods. For example, it took more than twenty years from the publication of Cognitive Therapy of Depression in 1979 for CBT training to be required in psychiatry residencies. Likewise, dissemination of CBT remains poor in other disciplines, including psychology. In addition to broader uptake, there is a need for the field to develop more effective training programs and to deepen CBT's impact across multiple disciplines of caregivers, which will be assisted by effective supervision.
The authors of this book are expert CBT practitioners, supervisors, and teachers whose experiences enrich their review of the available evidence on effective training and supervision. In addition, this book provides an approachable framework for using technological aids to teaching and supervision in an accessible manner. The learning exercises and practical understanding of different trainee groups, along with the online resources provided with this book, will undoubtedly contribute to the effort to develop more robust CBT training. As such, I believe this book will be an excellent tool for individual trainers and educational programs alike.

Robert Reiser, PhD, is a licensed psychologist and a fellow of the Academy of Cognitive Therapy. Since 2006, he has collaborated with Derek Milne on a series of research projects involving the development of an instrument (SAGE) to assess competence in supervision. He has written and coauthored journal articles and has contributed book chapters with Derek Milne focusing on evidence-based approaches to clinical supervision, including the International Handbook of Clinical Supervision (edited by Ed Watkins and Derek Milne, 2014). After ten years of teaching a graduate-level CBT course, he is now actively engaged in supervision and training in a CBT for psychosis implementation and dissemination project. Over several years he has served as a consulting supervisor for the CBT-D national training program with the Veterans Administration.
Derek L. Milne is a clinical psychologist and a fellow of the British Psychological Society, with extensive experience as a supervisor, supervisor trainer, and supervision researcher. Since 1996, he has led the first ever systematic R&D program on clinical supervision, developing our understanding and seeking to enhance practice within the field of mental health (especially CBT supervision). This research program has followed the evidence-based practice rationale and has included extensive collaboration within the National Health Service. This started with theory-building work (systematic reviews), then involved a series of n = 1 studies (including the development of an instrument to assess competence in supervision), and related efforts to foster an evidence-based practice (for example, a national pilot study of a supervisor training manual). This program is summarized in Evidence-Based Clinical Supervision (2009). In 2010 he retired as director of The Doctorate in Clinical Psychology at Newcastle University, but he continues to teach and research supervision. His latest work is The International Handbook of Clinical Supervision (2014), coedited with Ed Watkins.
