The Anxiety and Worry Workbook, Second Edition cover

If you are seeking lasting relief from out-of-control anxiety, this is the book for you. It is grounded in cognitive behavior therapy (CBT), the proven treatment approach developed and tested over decades by pioneering clinician-researcher Aaron T. Beck. Now Dr. Beck and fellow expert David A. Clark put the tools and techniques of CBT at your fingertips in this compassionate guide. Carefully crafted worksheets (additional copies can be downloaded and printed as needed), exercises, and examples reflect the authors' wealth of experience. Learn practical strategies for identifying anxiety triggers, challenging the thoughts and beliefs that lead to distress, safely facing feared situations, and truly loosening anxiety's grip--one manageable step at a time. Updated throughout, the second edition includes evaluation exercises that help you get to know your anxiety; up-to-date information about panic attacks, social anxiety, and other topics; additional graphics; and new troubleshooting tips and tools for success.

Mental health professionals, see also the state-of-the-art clinical reference Exposure Therapy for Anxiety, Second Edition, by Jonathan S. Abramowitz, Brett J. Deacon, and Stephen P. H. Whiteside.
