Cognitive Behavioral Therapy for a Young Woman of Asian Heritage

Abstract: Generalized anxiety disorder (GAD) is one of the most common anxiety disorders and is associated with significant impairments in academic, occupational, and social functioning. Cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) has shown to be an effective treatment for GAD; however, little research has examined its effectiveness with individuals of Asian heritage. In fact, as a result of limited use of mental health services within the Asian population, there is little psychotherapy research for this population. The present … Show more

“…Further, Asian Indians are likely to perceive clinicians as authority figures (Fillauer et al, 2019) or “God-like” figures (Rastogi et al, 2014) and defer to them for treatment decisions (Rastogi et al, 2014). Alternatively, Asian Indians may be open to an opportunity to develop a collaborative treatment plan (Fillauer et al, 2019; Hall et al, 2018) given their collectivistic orientation, and thus, may need to be explicitly guided to this format given their default perspective of the clinician as an authority figure. In terms of the treatment format, Asian Indians may prefer fewer writing-based assignments, more audio-recorded material, and regular reminders to increase treatment retention and homework compliance (Naeem et al, 2015).…”

“…There is limited research of use of CPT with AAs and even less available research examining the evidence of CPT with SA individuals, in particular Pakistani-Americans (PA). Some case reports exist that highlight the potential effectiveness at-large of CBT with individuals of SA descent (Fillauer et al, 2019;Mahr et al, 2013) though these addressed generalized anxiety and treatment with pre-adolescents rather than trauma-focused treatment. Some studies provide promising evidence that Western approaches to therapy are effective for AAs and trauma-related symptoms.…”
