The aim of this non-control trial was to analyze the effectiveness of Barlow's Unified Protocol (2011) group application in adult patients with emotional disorders of the anxious-depressive spectrum. This trial study was based on a no-control-group design that included pre- and post-treatment measures. The intervention was performed with 23 patients who met diagnostic criteria for panic attack, agoraphobia, social phobia, generalized anxiety disorder, unspecified anxiety disorder and major depression and attended an average of 14 sessions. The results showed a significant reduction in symptoms of anxiety and depression, and of the difficulties in the emotional regulation in the patients, also an increase of positive emotions, personal strength and functional improvement. These data provide evidence on the effectiveness of the transdiagnostic approach for emotional disorders in Argentina.
