It definitely occurs to me that this is an overly specific question, but with the variety of experienced clinicians that frequent the forum, I thought it may be worth posing.
I'm certainly aware that any CBT approach can help address procrastination with a variety of specific interventions. I guess I'm more looking for whether people have ever come across manualized or structured approaches that are designed for really targeting procrastination as a standalone problem. Obviously it's not that simple and is often present with emotional disorders and driven by anxiety and avoidance, but because it shows up so much across different clinical presentations (and subclinical presentations), I was thinking people might have tried to target it specifically by itself in a very behavioral way.
Things that come to mind for me are structured behavioral activation tasks (activity tracking/scheduling, breaking tasks up, using timers, etc,). Also I think Barlow's Unified Protocol references procrastination here and there (though in the context treating general emotional problems). Either way, I'm looking for workbooks, manuals, handouts, homework activities, etc. Anything that people feel has been useful in their own practice is welcome as well.
Hope this makes sense. Thanks in advance for any info.
