In adolescents with anxiety disorders, the study aims to compare the effectiveness of cognitive-
behavioral therapy (CBT) in primary care settings versus mindfulness-based stress reduction
(MBSR) in reducing anxiety symptoms and improving everyday functioning over a period of 6
months. The goal is to determine which intervention provides better outcomes for managing
anxiety in this population.
2. Explain why the issue/concern is important to nurse practitioner practice. Provide an in-
text citation from one scholarly source to support your writing.
Treating anxiety disorders in adolescents is crucial to nurse practitioner (NP) practice because
early intervention can significantly improve the quality of life and everyday functioning of
these young individuals. When anxiety is addressed, NPs can avert more significant potential
mental illness in primary care settings in the future and provide adolescents with key coping
strategies (Turi et al., 2023, p.17). This consistently provides a safe and inclusive environment,
leading to longer-term adolescent improvements.
