This method involves a mixture of cognitive and behavioral techniques that are intended to help patients identify and modify their dysfunctional anxiety-related thoughts, beliefs and behavior.

The data showed that both CBT and ECT could significantly reduce the number of panic attacks, the level of depression and both state and trait anxiety.
