内容简介

Bringing together prominent researchers and practitioners, this authoritative volume reports on significant recent advances in understanding and treating anxiety that are grounded in emotional processing theory and the seminal work of Edna Foa. Current etiological perspectives are presented, effective assessment approaches discussed, and important findings presented on the benefits of cognitive-behavioral therapies, pharmacotherapy, and combined treatments. The coverage encompasses the full range of frequently encountered disorders: post-traumatic stress disorder, obsessive-compulsive disorder in children and adults, panic, generalized anxiety, social phobia, and traumatic grief. The special topics include the introduction of a new treatment, and virtual reality exposure therapy.
