There’s a kind of practical cognitive behavioral therapy developed by John Burns that’s very much in the spirit of this, without leaning so much on biological speculation. He has too many insights to summarize, but one I important perspective is that anxiety and depression have advantages, and it’s up to people to decide if they want to give them up or not. Too often therapists rush in to “save” people, which forces patients to dig in deeper.
His podcast is pretty good if anybody is interested.
