So, how do you get started in CBT and establish the practice? Any resources?

I'd start with something like this: http://www.amazon.com/CBT-Toolbox-Workbook-Clients-Clinician...
I started with Feeling Good: The New Mood Therapy, by Burns, and it's really good but an overwhelming amount of information.
That being said, I do have an appreciation from mindfulness meditation as well as CBT. They complement each other very well. I'd recommend the audiobook Mindfulness: An Eight-Week Plan for Finding Peace in a Frantic World. It's a really easy way to get started and you'll definitely feel like your life has improved by the time the 8 weeks is up.
