Worry is a central issue in many people's lives.

Reviews

The therapist will find this a valuable bibliotherapy tool when treating anxiety and depression. It is also an indispensable source of psychological knowledge on worry and its treatment for all mental health practitioners. It should be required reading for any student of psychotherapy. If I could choose only 10 clinical texts for my library, The Worry Cure would be one of them! - The Clinical Psychologist

This book offers practical and powerful tools to reverse your worry and transform the quality of your life. - Anthony Robbins, author of Awaken The Giant Within AND Unlimited Power
