ABSTRAK Prevalensi gangguan mental emosional di Propinsi Papua Barat sebesar 13,2%, diantaranya adalah ansietas. Asuhan keperawatan jiwa bagi klien gangguan fisik yang mengalami ansietas belum berjalan optimal, 75% klien dengan gangguan fisik yang dirawat di RSUD Kabupaten Sorong mengalami ansietas. Tujuan penelitian untuk mengetahui pengaruh terapi thought stopping terhadap ansietas klien dengan gangguan fisik di RSUD Kabupaten Sorong. Desain yang digunakan ”Quasi experimental pre-post test with control group”. Penetapan sampel dengan random permutasi sebanyak 86 klien. Ansietas klien diukur menggunakan kuesioner dan lembar observasi, dianalisis menggunakan distribusi frekuensi, independent-t test, paired-t test dan regresi linier ganda. Terapi Thought Stopping dilakukan dengan melatih klien memutuskan pikiran yang mengganggu dengan mengatakan “stop”yang dilakukan dalam tiga sesi selama 3-5 hari untuk setiap klien. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan adanya penurunan ansietas secara bermakna pada klien yang mendapatkan terapi Thought Stopping (p-value<0,05) yang meliputi respon fisiologis, kognitif, perilaku dan emosi. Pada perempuan penurunan ansietas lebih tinggi secara bermakna dibandingkan pada pria. Klien yang mendapatkan terapi Thought Stopping mengalami penurunan ansietas lebih tinggi secara bermakna dibandingkan klien yang tidak mendapatkan terapi. Hal ini didukung oleh hasil penelitian Dombeck yang menyatakan bahwa tindakan konfrontasi terhadap pikiran yang mengganggu dalam terapi Thought Stopping sangat membantu secara nyata menurunkan ansiatas. Terapi Thought Stopping dapat dilakukan di rumah sakit umum untuk mengurangi ansietas klien. Untuk itu perlu dikembangkan CLPN (Consultant Psychiatric Liaison Nursing) di rumah sakit umum agar terapi Thought Stopping dapat dijalankan untuk mengatasi ansietas klien dengan gangguan fisik.
