Guilford was founded by Bob Matloff and Seymour Weingarten. Matloff retired as president in 2022. The firm is run by Weingarten (co-founder and editor-at-large) and Tim Stookesberry (chief executive officer). In 2025, Weingarten received the Distinguished Friend to Behavior Therapy Award from the Association for Behavioral and Cognitive Therapies. Guilford Press has over 1,300 titles in print, typically publishes more than 55–65 new books in print and e-book formats each year, and also publishes 10 journals. In the academic sphere, Guilford Publications has published books by Aaron T. Beck, the cognitive therapist; Marsha Linehan, the developer of dialectical behavior therapy (DBT); and the founders of motivational interviewing, Stephen Rollnick and William R. Miller. Overcoming Binge Eating, Second Edition, by Christopher G. Fairburn, and Mind Over Mood by Dennis Greenberger and Christine A. Padesky, have been included in the United Kingdom Reading Well Books on Prescription program, a selective list of self-help books that general practitioners, counselors, and community mental health specialists are encouraged to "prescribe" for patients with mild to moderate mental health concerns. Mind Over Mood was also voted by the British Association of Behavioural and Cognitive Therapies as "the most influential cognitive behavioural therapy publication" and was recommended by Scientific American Mind. It also publishes books in the field of literacy education, by authors including G. Michael Pressley and Susan B. Neuman. Guilford's authors and editors include 13 past presidents of the International Literacy Association, 49 members of the Reading Hall of Fame, and 14 winners of the Oscar S.
