“The CBT Workbook for Illness Anxiety is an incredibly comprehensive resource that articulately explains everything you have ever wondered about illness anxiety or how to overcome it. Worden and Kaplan were able to share their deep knowledge of health anxiety and treatment in a manner that is equally informative yet digestible, and through a voice that is both supportive and kind. Unquestionably, this workbook will serve as a guiding light for so many who have struggled with illness anxiety by revealing the path back to a life that is no longer dictated by worries about health. This is a go-to book that I cannot wait to recommend to my clients and colleagues alike.”Alison R. Menatti, Director, Center for OCD & Anxiety-Related Disorders, Saint Louis Behavioral Medicine Institute, MO“Drs. Kaplan and Worden have demonstrated exceptional proficiency in crafting a comprehensible and highly motivational text that adeptly elucidates the deleterious impacts of health anxiety and offers effective strategies for its mitigation.
