CBT Thought Record Bundle

Catch the thought, check the evidence, choose a fairer one.

What this is

About the workbook

The thought record is the most-used worksheet in cognitive behavioural therapy, and most versions of it are cramped and unfriendly. This bundle gives you several formats so you can find one you will actually fill in.

Useful whether you are working with a therapist or on your own, and useful for anxiety, low mood, and self-criticism alike.

Using and sharing it

Free to download, print, and share with clients. No resale. Please credit teocounselling.com. If you are a clinician, librarian, or community organisation and want to link to this workbook, the page you are on is the one to link to.

This workbook is educational. It is not therapy, not an assessment, and nothing in it is a diagnosis. If you are in immediate danger, call 911. In Canada, the Suicide Crisis Helpline can be reached by calling or texting 988, at any hour.
