What is Social Anxiety Disorder (Advances in Psychotherapy -- Evidence-Based Practice) about?

Social anxiety disorder (SAD) is characterized by excessive anxiety in situations where a person might feel judged, such as performance situations, and situations involving interpersonal contact with others. In this work, Antony (psychology, Ryerson University, Canada) and Rowa (psychiatry and behavioral neurosciences, McMaster University, Canada) describe components of an empirically supported psychological therapy for SAD, namely cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT), involving exposure techniques, cognitive techniques, and social skills training. The first two chapters offer a theoretical and descriptive overview of SAD. Later chapters overview key assessment domains and describe CBT techniques for SAD. One full chapter is dedicated to two clinical vignettes describing treatment from start to finish. An appendix of forms is included. The audience for the book encompasses a variety of mental health professionals, including psychologists, psychiatrists, social workers, and family physicians.
