This full-day workshop will outline & demonstrate a rapid-gain treatment model for panic disorder, social anxiety, phobias & OCD. CBT is a first-line treatment for the anxiety disorders & OCD. Yet it can require a substantial amount of time, discomfort and cost for the client, which can lead to treatment refusal, dropouts & lack of engagement. Preliminary studies are now pointing to the efficacy of briefer treatments, including published data on this model. Learn more and register today.
