The goal of pleasure therapy is to sensitise patients to a positive perception. This behavioural therapeutic concept was developed by the author herself and puts positive feelings and actions at the centre of the therapy. There are targeted exercises which are intended to appeal to each of the five senses. The method can be used with non-specific symptoms and is suitable for many different disorders, e.g. depression, obsessive-compulsive disorders or tinnitus. The book also includes additional worksheets and audio files that help patients to do the exercises in everyday life.
