Beyond medications: a multifaceted approach to alleviating comorbid anxiety and depression in clinical settings

Through the comprehensive, person-centered treatment more patients had low levels of both anxiety and depression 3 months after treatment.

More research concerning comorbid anxiety and depression are urgent to further expand the treatment possibilities.
