Course Description
Anxiety Disorders are the most common of mental health disorders, with roughly one-third of all people living in the United States suffering from an anxiety disorder during their lifetime. Moreover, untreated anxiety disorders come at a tremendous cost both individually and societally, and can adversely impact a person’s health, social relationships, job performance, and much more. With a wide range of treatments available, clinicians can often feel overwhelmed knowing when and how to incorporate approaches like cognitive restructuring, exposure-based strategies, mindfulness-oriented skills, breathing retraining, and more. In this seminar, join Dr. Jonah Paquette for a practical overview of how to effectively treat a range of anxiety disorders. Attendees will gain tangible skills they can immediately use in their clinical work.
