What is this?

A cognitive therapy journal format invented by David Burns in his book "Feeling Good". Known also as the "three column" technique, where the columns are traditionally:

  • "Automatic thoughts"

  • "Distortions or errors"

  • "Dispute the distortions"

But Burns' full journal has in fact five columns:

  • "The Situation" - The thought or event, without any evaluation or emotion

  • "Emotional response" - How you felt

  • "The Automatic thought" - What you told yourself as a result of the situation and feeling

  • "The Cognitive Distortions" - Identify how these thoughts are distorted, if you can

  • "Rational Response" - A rational response to someone having those thoughts and feelings.
