Exposure for Multiple Anxiety Disorders

Abstract

This chapter discusses key transdiagnostic cognitive, behavioral, and physiological features of anxiety disorders and how these may be targeted using exposure therapy. Benefits of transdiagnostic and disorder-specific approaches to treating anxiety disorders are discussed, as well as considerations for when one may want to use each approach. Guidelines for how to deviate from typical disorder-specific approaches are provided, in the context of both individual and group treatments for anxiety disorders. A brief review of the literature is provided, as well as a case example to illustrate the application of transdiagnostic exposure therapy for comorbid anxiety disorders.
