Description

Do you feel overwhelmed by the severity of your client’s anxiety symptoms?

Does their need to seek reassurance and perform compulsions prevent them from moving forward in therapy? You are not alone if you find your clients experiencing the same symptoms after several therapy sessions, if they get stuck on the “why’s” of anxiety, or if they are unable to take meaningful action against their anxiety.

Join award winning experts in anxiety and OCD—Kimberly Morrow, LSCW & Elizabeth DuPont Spencer, LCSW-C—for this intensive 2-Day Anxiety Certification Course to learn the gold standard of care for treating GAD, Panic Disorder, OCD, Social Anxiety, and Phobias.  You’ll learn to skillfully integrate CBT and Exposure and Response Prevention (ERP) to climb over obstacles in therapy and gain confidence in your ability to treat the most symptomatic, anxious clients on your caseload.

In this intensive 2-Day Anxiety Certification Course, you’ll reap the benefits of Morrow and Spencer’s expertise as well as their friendly and passionate approach to teaching CBT with ERP.

You’ll start seeing real results with these cutting-edge CBT and ERP interventions, that give you:

  • Ways to help clients face their triggers and change their relationship with fear
  • Strategies to manage your own anxiety about treating your anxious clients
  • Methods to use exposure therapy in meaningful, successful ways
  • Specific strategies for Panic Disorder, phobias, OCD and social anxiety

Packed with videos, case examples, and opportunities to practice and build skills confidently, you’ll walk away with strategies you can use the very next day!

Best of all, upon completion of this training, you’ll be eligible to become a Certified Clinical Anxiety Treatment Professional (CCATP) through Evergreen Certifications.
