Abstract in brief

  • The study compared the effectiveness of integrative therapy, combining elements of cognitive-behavioral therapy (CBT) and short-term psychodynamic psychotherapy, to standalone CBT in treating generalized anxiety disorder (GAD).
  • A total of 36 patients with GAD were randomly assigned to three groups: integrative therapy, CBT, and a non-treatment control group, with assessments measured before and after treatment using standardized scales.
  • Results showed that both therapies significantly reduced anxiety symptoms, but the integrative approach was more effective than CBT alone in alleviating GAD symptoms.
