Abstract
The present intervention study endeavors to cast a glance at the treatment of social
 anxiety disorder in a pregnant woman through cognitive behavior therapy. The case
 study focuses on the successful treatment of a 25-year-old pregnant woman who was
 experiencing severe anxiety triggered by social situations and traveling. The therapy
 sessions effectively addressed and managed her anxiety, taking into consideration the
 unique circumstances of her pregnancy. The case study highlights the significance of
 individualized interventions and evidence-based approaches in effectively treating
 anxiety disorders in pregnant individuals. The symptoms were significantly affecting
 her daily life. The study aimed to assess the efficacy of cognitive-behavioral therapy
 (CBT) for individuals with social anxiety disorder during pregnancy and involved 12
 sessions of therapy. Therapeutic techniques used for social anxiety disorder include
 psychoeducation, systematic desensitization, exposure and response prevention, and
 cognitive restructuring. At the end of the therapy, the patient’s symptoms were
 significantly reduced, and relapse prevention tactics were taught to help her manage
 herself in the future. The study suggests that CBT can effectively treat social anxiety
 disorder during pregnancy.
