LEARNING OBJECTIVES: Clinicians will learn an empirically supported and effective cognitive-behavioral therapy program for treating generalized anxiety disorder.
Generalized Anxiety Disorder occurs in approximately 4% of the population and is characterized by excessive uncontrollable worry about everyday things. The constant worry can be extremely impairing if left untreated, even to the point of causing physical symptoms.
Written by the developers of an empirically supported and effective cognitive-behavioral therapy program for treating GAD, this second edition therapist guide includes all the information and materials necessary to implement a successful treatment protocol. The therapeutic technique described in this book is research-based with a proven success rate when used in both individual and group formats, as well as with clients currently taking medication. Features in this edition include chapters that provide detailed instructions for conducting each session, session outlines, and recommended homework assignments. This user-friendly guide is a dependable resource that no clinician can do without.
This is one of five Therapist Guides in Treatments That Work edited by David H. Barlow. These Guides are evidence-based procedures with adequate clinical research. The companion client workbooks can be ordered from online bookstores.
