Can one therapy treat all anxiety disorders? a new study aims to find out
NCT ID NCT05249543
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This study tests whether a single type of cognitive-behavioral therapy (CBT) can work for several anxiety disorders, compared to therapies designed for each specific disorder. About 76 adults with panic disorder, generalized anxiety, social anxiety, OCD, or PTSD will participate. The main goal is to see if a larger trial is possible, not yet to prove which therapy is better.
