ABSTRACTAfter providing background information on the definition and nature of generalized anxiety disorder, this article describes cognitive-behavioral therapy (CBT) methods that have been empirically supported in the treatment of this disorder. Subsequent to this description, relevant outcome literature is briefly reviewed, along with evidence that the addition of other techniques beyond traditional CBT methods may be necessary to maximize clinical outcome. A description is then provided of an integrated interpersonal/emotional processing therapy that the authors have recently added to their CBT protocol. CBT with and without this integrated treatment is currently being evaluated in an experimental trial.

Generalized anxiety disorder - is a common disease, which is quite difficult diagnosed and treated. Cognitive-behavioral therapy is indicated to patients with GAD as a first-line method. This article provides an overview of the principles, advantages and evidence of the effectiveness of this type of therapy. Although cognitive behavioral therapy has advantage over other types of therapy for GAD, this issue requires further research, because there are problems such as a high percentage of patients interrupting therapy and relatively low percentage of clinically meaningful improvement.
