Excerpt
Cognitive-behavioral therapy (CBT) methods are a direct outgrowth of the basic theories and experimental findings on cognitive and behavioral pathology in specific psychiatric disorders. Thus, cognitive-behavioral therapists implement procedures that are directly linked to core theoretical constructs. For example, the cognitive restructuring and exposure and response prevention interventions used for panic disorder with agoraphobia are designed to reverse pathologies of 1) overestimation of risk or danger, 2) underestimation of coping abilities, and 3) avoidance of feared situations.
