Abstract
Abstract This case study examines the effects of Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) on a 25-year-old individual diagnosed with Generalized Anxiety Disorder (GAD). The patient experiences issues with self-esteem and interpersonal communication. During the CBT process, negative automatic thoughts were identified and replaced with functional alternatives. Therapeutic interventions and assigned tasks helped the patient identify and restructure cognitive distortions. The treatment process observed a decrease in anxiety levels and an overall improvement in emotional well-being. The effectiveness of CBT in treating GAD is emphasized as a method targeting the modification of cognitive processes. Research conducted across various age and demographic groups has shown CBT to be successful in reducing anxiety levels and improving psychological well-being. Future studies should aim to further examine the applicability and effectiveness of CBT. Specifically, research identifying anxiety level increases among GAD patients during pandemic periods would contribute to developing more effective intervention strategies. Additionally, increasing studies on the effects of CBT across different demographic groups would allow for the personalization of therapy methods. Keywords: cognitive behavioral therapy, generalized anxiety disorder, pathological anxiety, anxiety
