Cognitive behavioral therapy for depressive disorders: Outcomes from a multi-state, multi-site primary care practice.

Background: Individuals with depressive disorders often present to and seek treatment in primary care. Integrated behavioral health services within this setting can improve access to evidence-based cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT). However, limited information exists on the effectiveness of CBT for depression in primary care.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy for Anxiety Disorders: Outcomes From a Multi-State, Multi-Site Primary Care Practice.

Background: Anxiety disorders are among the most common mental health conditions. Individuals with anxiety typically seek services in primary, rather than specialty, care. While there is significant evidence supporting the efficacy and effectiveness of cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) for anxiety disorders, there have been no naturalistic studies reporting anxiety-specific treatment outcomes in primary care.

Outcomes of a 6-week cognitive-behavioral and mindfulness group intervention in primary care.

Introduction: Cognitive-behavioral and mindfulness-based interventions are established treatments for depressive and anxiety disorders; however, there is a lack of research for these interventions in primary care settings. The current study evaluates an evidence-based group intervention provided to primary care patients with a variety of mood and anxiety concerns.

Method: Participants included 54 adult primary care patients who attended at least four sessions of a six-session cognitive-behavioral and mindfulness group.
