Clinical Trial Summary

The current pilot study will examine and compare the effectiveness of two group psychotherapies for mixed anxiety disorders: 1. unified cognitive-behavioral protocol, adapted to a group format. 2. combined cognitive-behavioral and dance/movement therapy.

In addition, change in proposed mechanism in each therapy will be examined, along with their association with change in outcome measures during therapy.


Clinical Trial Description

The current pilot study will examine and compare the effectiveness of two group psychotherapies for mixed anxiety disorders: 1. unified cognitive-behavioral protocol, adapted to a group format. 2. combined cognitive-behavioral and dance/movement therapy.

24 patients will be randomized to 1 of the two treatment arms and treated with 20 weekly 1.5-2 hours therapy sessions. Independent evaluator and self-reports measures will be collected at intake, pre-treatment, session by session, post-treatment and and follow-up.

Hypotheses:

1. Both groups will show effectiveness, as revealed by reduction in anxiety severity and increase in valued living.

2. Changes in process measures (proposed mechanism of change - emotion regulation, working alliance, fear of bodily sensations, bodily/movement awareness) will be predictive of change in outcome measures (anxiety severity and valued living).

3. Changes in bodily/movement awareness will be more predictive of change in outcome measures in the CBT-DMT group than in the unified protocol group. ;
