Some Considerations

Putting It All Together

Deciding which CBT techniques to use in a particular situation depends mainly on how responsive you are to each technique. The vast majority of the time, however, the following sequence seems to work well: When anxious, first try the Yoga Style and the Logic Style (because they are quicker). If those doesn’t work, then switch to the Berserker Style (because that usually ends up being the strongest and most reliable). When angry, try Cathartic Letters first, and then Assertiveness once you've figured out what's bothering you.
