In light of evidence supporting a relationship between depressive disorders and death anxiety, a considerable body of evidence supports the use of existential therapies to address the existential fears that often underlie depressive disorders (Ghaemi, 2007 and Stalsett et al., 2012). In addition, a small number of studies have investigated the efficacy of various other treatments for death anxiety in the presence of depressive disorders. For instance, Chait (1998) reported on the treatment of depression and fear of dying in a 7 year old boy. In this single case study, psychoanalytic therapy was used to explore early and ongoing separations thought to influence the child's fears, with treatment resulting in improvements in the child's internal structure and family ties. In addition, Hussian (1983) evaluated the effectiveness of operant therapy and cognitive therapy to treat depression and high-frequency verbalizations about death and dying in two elderly institutionalized patients. However, the treatment strategies and outcomes for these case studies were individualized, indicating the need for larger studies to determine the efficacy of well-established treatment strategies for death anxiety underlying depressive disorders.
