AP Psychology
Unit 8 – Clinical Psychology
Topic 8.9
Why do some psychologists argue for a combination treatment approach involving both medication and psychotherapy in cases of severe anxiety?
Combination treatments are less expensive than individual treatments.
Psychotherapy alone can cause negative side effects that medications help mitigate.
Medications manage biological symptoms while therapy addresses cognitive-behavioral aspects associated with anxiety.
Medications are generally ineffective without accompanying psychotherapy.
