The unified protocol for transdiagnostic treatment of emotional disorders
Overview
This paper outlines the theoretical foundations for the Unified Protocol, a transdiagnostic treatment targeting emotional disorders. It describes how shifts in psychopathology classification revealed common neurobiological mechanisms across anxiety, depressive, and related conditions. The authors propose focusing on these shared underlying dimensions rather than specific symptomatic differences between individual diagnoses.
