Abstract

This article sets out a proposal for a treatment planning protocol of emotional disorders, especially focused on anxiety disorders, which includes the main steps that should be outlined in a work plan. It also describes a cognitive intervention model based on the cognitive bias approach, particularly Michael W. Eysenck’s Four Factor Theory, developed in the early nineties. This is an intervention focused on cognitive restructuring, which was inspired by  experimental cognitive psychology, and has found a way to explain and treat
emotional disorders in a more practical and effective way than cognitive behavioral interventions based on traditional models.
