--Robert L. Leahy, PhD, director of the American Institute for Cognitive Therapy, and author of The Jealousy Cure
"Millions of people in North America and around the world spend billions of dollars each year in vain attempts to suppress and escape the ravages of severe anxiety. In this brief, easy-to-read workbook, one of the foremost authorities on anxiety in the world, Stefan Hofmann, lays out several relatively simple, straightforward, and proven strategies based on the latest cutting-edge research to face life's daily challenges with confidence rather than fear. By individually tailoring these strategies to their own situation, everyone suffering from anxiety should benefit."
--David H. Barlow, PhD, ABPP, professor of psychology and psychiatry emeritus, and founder of the Center for Anxiety and Related Disorders at Boston University
"This workbook could be a game changer for those struggling with anxiety. It is packed full of the latest evidence-based knowledge and treatment strategies that target key symptoms of anxiety. Written by Stefan Hofmann, a world-renowned researcher and clinician in the treatment of anxiety disorders, The Anxiety Skills Workbook presents modular, step-by-step instruction on how to deal with the root causes of persistent anxiety. Readers will find the case examples, uncomplicated worksheets, and straightforward explanations a refreshing departure from a crowded field of self-help books on anxiety."
--David A. Clark, PhD, professor emeritus in the department of psychology at the University of New Brunswick in Canada, and author of The Anxious Thoughts Workbook
"Tens of millions of people have benefitted from cognitive and behavioral therapies to develop a new relationship with anxiety. Stefan Hofmann is a world-leading scientist and practitioner, and presents here an easy-to-use anxiety skills workbook that is firmly grounded in the latest research. The evidence is clear: it's not what happens to us, but rethinking the ongoing stresses and events that happen in life, as well as our beliefs about emotions, worry, and replacing past memories with experiences of accomplishment in tricky situations that helps us to grow. Anyone wanting to alleviate their anxiety should read this book."
--Nikolaos Kazantzis, PhD, associate professor at Monash University in Australia, coauthor of The Therapeutic Relationship in Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, and coeditor of Using Homework Assignments in Cognitive Behavior Therapy
"Many self-help books tend to overwhelm readers with endless lists of worksheets to be completed, and suggestions for too many `homework exercises.' This book is refreshingly different. It helps readers to quickly zero in on the most important issues common to all anxiety problems. Each chapter teaches the reader just a few exercises that were carefully selected based on what the latest scientific research has shown repeatedly to be effective in the treatment of anxiety. Rather than feeling like victims of anxiety, these exercises will empower readers to move with anxiety rather than struggling against it, thus making them feel less like victims of anxiety and more in charge of their lives. If you're looking for a bare-bones workbook to help you deal with anxiety more effectively, this workbook will be perfect for you."
--Georg H. Eifert, PhD, professor emeritus of psychology at Chapman University, and coauthor of The Mindfulness and Acceptance Workbook for Anxiety
"Stefan Hofmann is an expert in the areas of anxiety, fear, and worry, and his outstanding book will teach you how to help yourself with cognitive behavioral as well as mindfulness treatment strategies. This book is filled with clear and practical advice that will guide your journey toward a better life."
--Sabine Wilhelm, PhD, professor at Harvard Medical School, and chief of psychology at Massachusetts General Hospital
"This book combines a range of effective strategies that have been studied for decades with newer approaches for understanding and treating anxiety and related problems. It's clearly written, well organized, and filled with helpful tips and tools to stop anxiety in its tracks. The best way to overcome anxiety is to change the thoughts and behaviors that keep it alive. This book will show you how to do exactly that. I recommend it highly!"
--Martin M. Antony, PhD, ABPP, professor in the department of psychology at Ryerson University in Canada, and coauthor of The Shyness and Social Anxiety Workbook
"If you are anxious, you know your problem from the inside out--so why use a one-size-fits-all approach if you can instead learn to do what fits your needs? Written by one of the world's leading experts on cognitive behavioral approaches to emotion, this workbook takes some of the most effective skills for addressing anxiety and breaks them down into bite-sized modules that you can learn and use either as an overall package or as stand-alone strategies. Research suggests that these modules--these micro-skills--are highly effective and worth your effort to learn. Highly recommended."
--Steven C. Hayes, PhD, Foundation Professor in the department of psychology at the University of Nevada, Reno
