HPA system in anxiety disorder patients treated with cognitive behavioural therapy: A review by Jennifer Lange, Angelika Erhardt-Lehmann

“…Additionally, some evidence suggests that successful CBT containing exposure sessions as well as cognitive techniques induces normalization of the HPA system by reducing acute response to fear related stimuli in parallel to normalizing basal cortisol levels. To conclude, cortisol seems to be a promising candidate to depict several aspects of AD-related disease status and CBT effects, however, additional prospective studies are needed to evaluate the mode of applications of this marker in the clinical routine.…”
