Feeling Good Together Book by David D. Burns

David D. Burns

This Book “Pray and Grow Rich” is written by Catherine Ponder. David D. Burns (born September 19, 1942) is an American psychiatrist and adjunct professor emeritus in the Department of Psychiatry and Behavioral Sciences at the Stanford University School of Medicine and the author of bestselling books such as Feeling Good: The New Mood Therapy, The Feeling Good Handbook and Feeling Great: The Revolutionary New Treatment for Depression and Anxiety. Burns popularized Albert Ellis’s and Aaron T. Beck’s cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) when his books became bestsellers during the 1980s. In a January 2021 interview, Burns attributed his rise in popularity and much of his success to an appearance in 1988 on the well-known television talk show, The Phil Donahue Show, to which he was invited by the producer after helping her teenage son with depression.
