Describe the cognitive model for panic disorder.
What will be an ideal response?
Clients with panic disorder view any unexplained symptom or sensation as an indication of impending doom or catastrophe. Each client has a specific equation for focusing his or her attention on bodily or psychological experiences and then translating this information into various psychological reactions. For instance, one client associates distress in the chest with a heart attack, while another person’s feelings of light headedness signal imminent unconsciousness to him (A. T. Beck & Weishaar, 2005).
