Cognitive Behaviour Therapy for Anxiety is a one-CD home study program designed to teach you some of the key principles of cognitive behaviour therapy (CBT) for anxiety. Long recognized as the treatment of choice for anxiety, cognitive behaviour CBT is made up of three sets of well established techniques: those for helping you relax, those for confronting and changing anxious and depressive thoughts, and those for reducing avoidant and performance-deadening behaviours. This program is not intended as a substitute for treatment available from a qualified health service provider (e.g., http://psycserv.com). Rather, it is designed to provide an overview of CBT, and a few essential CBT survival skills. The CD comes with a complete transcript.
