Panic

Our panic collection supports therapists in delivering both exposure-based and cognitive approaches to panic with young people, in line with current evidence.

It includes behavioural experiments and cognitive exercises to explore panic-related thoughts and challenge catastrophic misinterpretations, alongside structured tools for graded exposure such as panic diaries, exposure ladders, and progress logs.

Cognitive behavioural therapy (CBT) is recommended by NICE as a first-line treatment for panic disorder and anxiety.
