Description
Exposure Therapy for Anxiety: Principles and Practice is a leading guide to therapeutic exposure, a crucial element of evidence-based psychological treatments for anxiety. This revised and expanded edition includes cutting-edge acceptance-based techniques and a new focus on inhibitory learning, helping clinicians gain skills and confidence for implementing exposure successfully.
The book reviews the theoretical and empirical bases of exposure, describes specialized assessment and treatment planning techniques, and provides user-friendly features such as illustrative case examples, sample treatment plans, and reproducible handouts. New to this edition are chapters on acceptance and commitment therapy (ACT) techniques, the use of technology, and conceptual, empirical, and clinical advances.
With its focus on tailoring interventions to each client's needs, regardless of diagnosis, this book is an essential resource for clinicians and therapists working with anxiety disorders.
