CBT for Anxiety

Up to 12.0 Mainpro-C credits

With many studies showing CBT on par with drugs, influential practice guidelines (e.g., Cochrane) now promote CBT as a first-line treatment for the anxiety disorders. This highly-practical Mainpro-C works through family practice case studies of GAD, health anxiety (hypochondriasis), OCD, panic disorder, PTSD, and social anxiety. Participants are encouraged to discuss real-life cases, and are shown how to work effective CBT techniques into their standard family practice routines.
