Population comprised civil servants in Lagos state in the six Education Districts while the target population was Education District 1 Agege selected through convenient sampling. Teaching and non- teaching staff (male and female) who were screened as having high pre-retirement phobia totaling one hundred and eighty were used as sample. They were grouped into three for experiment. Group 1 was treated with cognitive restructuring, group 2 with self- management technique, group 3 (control) was just given a placebo. Three Null hypotheses were tested in the study. Two instruments, Self -assessment Retirement Checklist (SRC) and Pre-retirement Phobia Questionnaire(PPQ) were used for data collection. They were well validated and have reliability coefficient of 0.75 and 0.71 respectively. Analysis of data was done with t-test, ANOVA and ANCOVA at 0.05 level of significance. Hypothesis one was rejected while hypotheses two and three were retained. Result showed that cognitive restructuring and self- management techniques are effective to ameliorate pre-retirement phobia. It also revealed that gender and type of service did not make significant difference in pre-retirement phobia. (or in the effectiveness of the treatment) Recommendations were made that cognitive restructuring and self-management techniques should be used to give retirement counseling, both gender and all categories of Lagos state civil servants should be given retirement counselling without discrimination.en_US
