Course description
Who is suffering from anxiety, and how does it manifest? Why are we seeing these trends? And what can we do to help our patients manage? Join colleagues and faculty experts in person to dig into these questions.
This course will review updates in the diagnosis and management of anxiety disorders in various populations, from both the psychosocial and pharmacological frames. In addition, we'll explore the more systemic disruptions that are now leading to increased anxiety, such as the warming climate, ubiquitous presence of technology, and social trends. Participants will enhance their clinical practice by identifying and applying targeted strategies to reduce anxiety, foster resiliency, and promote social and emotional growth in their patients. We welcome all health and mental health clinicians interested in the prevention and treatment of anxiety and its related disorders.
