Feeling Good grew out of dissatisfaction with conventional Freudian treatment of depression. Burns’ mentor, Dr. Aaron T. Beck, (considered the 'father' of Cognitive Therapy, Dr. Albert Ellis considered the 'grandfather') concluded that there was no empirical evidence for the success of Freudian psychoanalysis in treating depressed people - in fact, the patient is generally made to feel like a loser. Freud believed that if a patient admitted to deep faults, they were probably correct. Decades of rigorious scientific research under severe critical scruntiny of the scientific community is now rapidly gaining popularity around the world for their anti-Fruedian basis of treating depression thats generally used by the majority of psychotherapists in the world for treating depression. Aaron Temkin Beck (born July 18, 1921) is an American psychiatrist and a professor emeritus at the department of psychiatry at the University of Pennsylvania. ...
