Donald Meichenbaum

Human beings are story tellers. It is human nature to make meaning of our lives by organizing what happens to us into stories. We are immersed in our stories.

(Stephen Joseph, 2011, p. 43)

Like our clients, we are each not only homo sapiens, but also homo narrans, or story tellers. As psychotherapists, we get paid to listen to our clients stories and we help them develop healing stories, and the accompanying coping skills in order to conduct a more adaptive, self-fulfilling life.

This book is an invitation to tell my story of the development and evolution of Cognitive Behavior Therapy from both a personal and professional perspective. The book addresses the following three questions:

How did I develop from being an undergraduate psychology major at City College of New York to being voted by clinicians to be one of the ten most influential psychotherapists of the 20th century? (Smith, 1982).

How did the field of Behavior Therapy that initially eschewed the concept of cognition as not having any explanatory value evolve into the Association for Behavioral and Cognitive Therapies?

How has the conceptualization of the concept of cognition changed in the field of psychotherapy and what are the implications for the ways in which interventions are implemented?

In order to answer these three challenging questions, I have been invited to select articles I have written over the course of 45 years of clinical research and practice. I am presently 75 years old and I have entered into what Erik Erikson called the Generativity phase of life giving science away and sharing any lessons that I have learned in seeing clients over all of these years.

In each part of this book, I have included references to updated, more recent papers that the interested reader can access. Some 20 years ago, I retired as Distinguished Professor Emeritus from the University of Waterloo in Ontario, Canada to become the Research Director of the Melissa Institute for Violence Prevention and Treatment, in Miami, Florida (see www.melissainstitute.org). In fact, the Melissa Institutes websites have had over two million hits worldwide this year. If you visit the Homepage and click Resources, and then click on Author Index, you can then scroll down to Meichenbaum and open the additional articles that I refer to in this book.

Sometimes, when a scientist dies his/her students put together a collection of writings in honor of the scholar, or what is called a Festschrift. Since I am not confident that my students would undertake such a venture, I decided to create a Festschrift to myself.

Thank you for joining me on my journey, but the journey actually continues. I have included a series of follow-up articles that you, the reader can access by visiting: https://www.routledge.com/9781138812222.
