Fear is a normal emotion. For one out of ten


people, however, fear is extreme and disruptive


because approximately 10% of people have


an anxiety disorder at any one time, only a


tiny proportion of whom receive appropriate


psychological treatment. This book provides you


with information about fears and phobias and how


to cope with them, so you can reclaim your life.


Incorporating extensive research on anxiety


and phobias, Dr Mansell writes accessibly and


supportively. He provides real-life examples and


many easy-to-learn techniques from cognitive


behavioural therapy (CBT), all of which will help


sufferers develop a lasting change. Coping with


Fears and Phobias is supported by a dedicated


website for sufferers and carers.
