Enhanced CBT for Anxiety Disorders Parent Treatment Manual

This online resource contains the Enhanced Cognitive-Behavioural
Treatment for Parent–Child Dyads with Anxiety Disorders: Therapist
Manual for Parent Sessions © 2021 by Samantha Galea and Katherine A. Lawrence. This parent treatment manual has been
developed to accompany the equivalent child treatment manual.
Together, the two manuals comprise the enhanced cognitive-behavioural
treatment for parent–child dyads with anxiety disorders. Research
indicates that bidirectional transmission and maintenance of anxiety
within parent–child dyads may be better targeted when parents and
children receive equivalent and concurrent CBT. Accordingly, the current
intervention was designed to simultaneously treat parent and child
anxiety disorders, as well as to provide opportunities for anxiogenic
dyadic factors to be specifically targeted via additional treatment
components.
