Psychological Treatment of Panic

Having designed a well-researched and widely implemented strategy, the authors elucidate their step-by-step, problem-oriented program with a clarity and thoroughness that considers every element of treatment. The manual begins with two context-establishing chapters, the former addressing the nature and consequences of panic and the latter its conception and treatment. A chapter on diagnosis and assessment is followed by the comprehensive presentation of the treatment plan, including chapters on relaxation, cognitive, and exposure components. The authors provide a chapter-long case study to illustrate problems that may arise in applying the program. Detailed reference supplements are given in appendices.Barlow, David H. is the author of 'Psychological Treatment of Panic' with ISBN 9780898625073 and ISBN 0898625076.
