Abstract

While treatments for Generalized Anxiety Disorder have considerably improvedrecently, they remain less effective than similar treatments for otheranxiety disorders. This paper reports on a comparative outcome study of alarge group didactic therapy specifically designed to teach patients to“become their own therapists” in an attempt to counterthe relapse problems commonly associated with this condition. The data suggestthat improvements noted at six month follow-up are maintained at two years. Suggestions are forwarded to explain the lack of differential responding found amongdifferent therapy approaches.
