Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Social phobia, or social anxiety disorder, is among the most common (and debilitating) of the anxiety disorders, and at any given time it effects somewhere between 3 and 5% of the US population, with similar statistics found in countries around the world. Cognitive-Behavioral Therapy (CBT) has been demonstrated to be the most effective form of treatment for social phobia, but research has shown that conventional CBT principles and general interventions fall short of the mark. With this in mind, Hofmann and Otto have composed an organized treatment approach that includes specifically designed interventions to strengthen the relevant CBT strategies. This volume builds upon empirical research to address the psychopathology and heterogeneity of social phobia, creating a series of specific interventions with numerous case examples.

Book excerpt: "The treatment in this book helps to ease the suffering of people with social anxiety disorder by helping them to abandon the psychological factors that maintain their constant expectation of social catastrophe, while allowing them to retain the wonderful personal qualities they have that facilitate genuine and fulfilling relationships. Cognitive behavior therapy has been shown to be very helpful for SAD over many research trials with severe and complex clients. Imagery-based CBT "enhances" traditional approaches by emphasizing the benefits of facilitating cognitive and emotional change via the imagery mode. Multisensory imagery is highly emotionally evocative. Clients are encouraged to incorporate vivid, multisensory imagery into every aspect of the treatment in this book"--

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Don’t let social anxiety rule your life! Overcome your fears using proven-effective skills grounded in cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT). Do you avoid social situations? Do you dread public speaking? Would you rather stay in a job you hate than go through the interview process? If so, you may have social anxiety—and you aren’t alone. People who struggle with social anxiety have an overwhelming fear of social situations. And as a result, could end up missing out on life’s opportunities—such as getting their dream job, meeting new friends, or finding the perfect mate. If you’re tired of social anxiety holding you back, this book can help. In CBT for Social Anxiety, you’ll learn how to conquer your fears using research-proven skills from one of the world’s leading CBT experts. In addition to overcoming avoidance of social situations through understanding how your social anxiety works, you’ll also learn how to engage in “social mishap exposures”—humorous social scenarios that you practice on your own terms, as you learn to see how well you’re able to cope with your anxiety in the moment. As you gradually realize that your worst fears are unfounded, you’ll gain the self-confidence needed to start really enjoying social interactions. Avoidance may lessen your social anxiety in the short-term, but it can actually make anxiety worse in the long run. Using the skills outlined in this book, you’ll learn how to face your social anxiety head on—so you can get on with your life.

The important question is not whether someone experiences social anxiety, but to what degree and how often. The term "social anxiety disorder" describes the distress and interference that comes along with severe social anxiety. Information is presented on the nature of social anxiety, empirically supported cognitive-behavioral techniques used to treat it, how to best implement these techniques, and how to deal with the problems that arise during treatment. The authors strive to offer a complete treatment that is informed by individual case conceptualization within an evidence-based practice framework. This third edition includes case examples that represent a diversity of clients across race/ethnicity, socioeconomic status, sexual orientation, and gender identity. social anxiety, social anxiety disorder, cognitive-behavioral techniques, implement, problems, case conceptualization, evidence-based practice, diversity"--
