Challenging Anxious Thoughts

The Challenging Anxious Thoughts worksheet will teach your clients about the CBT concept of irrational and rational thoughts, as they relate to anxiety. Psychoeducation is interspersed with examples, and opportunities for your clients to write about their own experiences.

Because irrational thoughts can be difficult to pin down without practice, we suggest working closely with your client as they make their way through this worksheet. It can also be helpful to complete the form multiple times using different anxiety-producing situations.
