Cognitive therapy and some cognitive training programs have shown to be useful as part of a multi-modal intervention. 2) Coherence training: if you refer to heart rate variability biofeedback, we think that can be a useful tool for emotional self-regulation in general. I don't know if there is research for specific clinical conditions. To provide overall context, we reviewed a great paper last year: Appelhans BM, Luecken LJ. Heart Rate Variability as an Index of Regulated Emotional Responding. Review of General Psychology. 2006;10:229–240. http://www.sharpbrains.com/blog/2007/02/11/heart-rate-variability-as-an-index-of-regulated-emotional-responding/ Hello Karen
