Helping clients understand the cognitive and behavioral processes involved in their clinical anxiety is important for getting the most out of cognitive-behavioral therapy.

Dr. Jonathan S. Abramowitz' cognitive-behavioral psychoeducation approach provides an explanation of techniques and how they work so that the client has a sense of agency and responsibility in their progress. This educational approach focuses on helping clients understand the psychological processes that are involved in the maintenance of clinical anxiety and related problems.

In this video program, Dr. Abramowitz demonstrates this approach by helping the patient learn to think of the anxiety response as a normal and adaptive response to the perception of threat that does not have to be resisted. The demonstration applies the approach with a client who is suffering from panic and generalized anxiety.
