Vale Dr Aaron T Beck. An enormous contribution
We are sad to share with you that father of cognitive behavior therapy, Dr. Aaron T. Beck, has passed away at the age of 100. Dr. Beck was a tireless advocate for evidence-based treatments for mental health, and his work touched countless lives. beckinstitute.org/draaronbec…
Such a great contributor to our understanding
We are very sad to announce that Prof Sir Michael Rutter, the 'father of Child Psychiatry', passed away over the weekend. His extraordinary career laid the foundations of Child Psychiatry and Developmental Psychopathology. He will be dearly missed @SGDPCentreKCL @KingsCollegeLon
