Treating clients with generalized anxiety disorder

de Jon Carlson

"Michelle G. Craske demonstrates her cognitive-behavioral approach to working with clients with [generalized anxiety] disorder. [This] disorder involves consistent feelings of anxiety, excessive worry, and tension. Typically there is little or no provocation for the client's worry, and there may also be physical symptoms such as muscle aches and fatigue. Cognitive-behavioral therapy focuses on thoughts and actions that might contribute to the anxiety and on helping clients see any negative bias they may have in interpreting information."--Container.
