Recent conceptualization of anxiety, depressive, and related "emotional" disorders emphasize their similarities rather than their differences. In response, there has been a movement in recent years away from traditional disorder-specific manuals for the treatment of these disorders and toward treatment approaches that focus on addressing psychological processes that appear to cut across disorders. These "transdiagnostic" evidence-based treatments may prove to be more cost efficient and have the potential to increase availability of evidence-based treatments to meet a significant public health need. Among clinicians, the Unified Protocol for Transdiagnostic Treatment of Emotional Disorders (UP), developed by Dr. David Barlow and colleagues, is the most recognizable and widely used transdiagnostic treatment protocol with empirical support for its use. Applications of the Unified Protocol for Transdiagnostic Treatment of Emotional Disorders provides clinicians with a "how to" guide for using the UP to treat a broad range of commonly encountered psychological disorders in adults. Each chapter covers a specific anxiety, depressive, or related "emotional" disorder, and important transdiagnostic processes are highlighted and discussed in relation to treatment. Case studies are employed throughout to illustrate the real-world application of this unique cognitive behavioral protocol and to instruct clinicians in the nuts and bolts of assessment, case formulation, and treatment in accordance with a transdiagnostic perspective.This title is available as an eBook.

David H. Barlow, PhD, is Professor of Psychology and Psychiatry
Emeritus and Founder of the Center for Anxiety and Related
Disorders at Boston University. Dr. Barlow has published over 600
articles and chapters and over 75 books and clinical manuals,
mostly in the area of the nature and treatment of emotional
disorders and clinical research methodology.
Todd J. Farchione, PhD, is Research Associate Professor in the
Department of Psychological and Brain Sciences at Boston
University. Dr. Farchione's research interests are focused on the
psychological factors associated with the development of anxiety,
depressive, and related disorders. In particular, he is interested
in the development and dissemination of more effective treatments
for these disorders.
"The last several decades have seen tremendous advances in the
development of empirically supported treatments for a variety of
psychological disorders but many of these developments are specific
to a given disorder and comorbidity is the rule rather than the
exception. The Unified Protocol is an effort by David Barlow and
his students to develop a framework that the practicing clinician
can use to address this comorbidity in a coherent fashion. The
current
edited volume from Barlow and Farchione and their contributing
authors represents a rich compendium of applications of he Unified
Protocol to a wide variety of psychological disorders ranging from
anxiety
and depression to substance abuse and the personality disorders. It
should serve as a valuable resource to anyone who treats or studies
comorbid clients in the real world."
--Steven Hollon, Ph.D., Gertrude Conaway Vanderbilt Professor of
Psychology, Vanderbilt University
