The lesson “Six Types of Anxiety Disorders” highlights the different forms of anxiety and their symptoms, including Generalized Anxiety Disorder, Panic Disorder, Social Anxiety Disorder, Specific Phobia, Obsessive-Compulsive Disorder, and Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder. It explains the key characteristics and common signs of each, while encouraging individuals to reflect on how anxiety may have contributed to their substance use and overall mental health challenges. By understanding these distinctions, people can better manage their symptoms through therapies like Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), helping them to address anxiety and take steps toward recovery.
Written by clinical psychologist Dr. Hal Baumchen, PsyD, LP, LADC, this printable PDF worksheet gives clinicians a practical, session-ready tool. The conversational, encouraging tone makes clinical concepts accessible to clients at any stage of recovery, while structured prompts keep the work focused and productive.
How clinicians use it: as an in-session exercise to open and structure discussion, as between-session homework to reinforce skills, as a progress tool to track growth over time, and as part of a treatment unit paired with the companion lesson and PowerPoint on this topic. Formatted for easy printing and immediate use in individual or group settings.
