The publications and therapeutic approaches that follow employ ICS as a way of approaching CBT across diagnoses – because: ICS provides a cognitive science based rationale for:

• The disjunction between thought and emotion
• The centrality of arousal in understanding mental health difficulties
• Attachment and relationship as central to the self, and central to the therapeutic process
• The role of mindfulness in providing a way into the process between thought and emotion and behaviour
• Deconstructing diagnosis (see recent book chapter on coping mechanisms).
