A tanulmányban a kognitív terápiák számos új irányzata közül a legfontosabbak kerülnek bemutatásra. A kognitív terápiák második hulláma a komplex problémák, a személyiségzavarok és identitászavarok kezelésére irányul, hosszabb időt és szorosabb terápiás kapcsolatot igényel: ide tartozik a sématerápia, Beck és munkatársainak a személyiségzavarok kezelésére kidolgozott kognitív terápiája, valamint Linehan dialektikus viselkedésterápiája. A kognitív terápiák harmadik hullámához a metakognitív, valamint tudatos jelenlét (mindfulness) szerepét kiemelő irányzatok tartoznak; ez utóbbi a valóság radikális elfogadására buzdítja a személyt a nehézségekkel való adaptívabb megküzdés érdekében.
