This new 6-hour program describes the anxiety disorders, common coexisting conditions, such as depression, eating disorders and insomnia and evidence-based treatments. Although anxiety-related disorders often undermine the quality of life, most forms of anxiety can be effectively treated. Participants completing this program should be able to: 1) Describe diagnostic criteria and treatment of panic disorder, phobic disorder, social anxiety, obsessive-compulsive disorder, generalized anxiety, mixed anxiety-depression, and posttraumatic stress. 2) Develop strategies for managing and preventing recurrent anxiety associated with professional or lifestyle issues. Panic Disorder • Diagnosis: intense fight-or-flight symptoms; triggers. • Agoraphobia: avoidance of situations and sites associated with panic. • Treatment: why cognitive-behavioral therapy (CBT), “in vivo” exposure techniques, or controlled breathing are effective in over 80% of clients. Social Anxiety Disorder • Symptoms: embarrassment, shame, and avoidance of social situations; how much of introversion is inherited, how much is a way of coping? • Treatment: CBT, tailored group therapy, and pharmacotherapy. Phobic Disorder • Diagnosis: what initiates a fear of nightmare intensity? • Treatment: “ in vivo” exposure and CBT for specific phobias. • Management: helping people overcome phobic disorders in medical, dental, home and school settings. Obsessive-Compulsive Disorder (OCD) • Origins: what underlies repetitive, ritualistic thoughts and behaviors? • Common Obsessions: contamination, doubt, body concerns, sexual, aggression. • Common Compulsions: checking, cleaning, counting, confiding. • OCD Spectrum Disorders: Tourette’s syndrome, hypochondriasis, skin picking, nail biting, kleptomania, jealousy, gambling and compulsive shopping. • Treatment: exposure, response prevention, CBT, and pharmacotherapy. • Management: OCD at home and at work: helpful guidelines. Generalized Anxiety Disorder (GAD) • Diagnosis: excessive anxiety of at least 6 months; restlessness, fatigue, irritability and insomnia. • Treatment: tailored CBT, anxiety-management training, controlled breathing and pharmacotherapy. Mixed Anxiety And Depression • Diagnosis: the role of low-grade, everyday dysthymic disorders versus psychobiological depression; relation to eating disorders. • Treatment: effectiveness of CBT; pharmacotherapy; guidelines for pharmacists concerning adverse interactions with other drugs, OTC products and nutrients. • Sleep: anxiety and depression: how they each affect sleep (falling and staying asleep). Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD) • Primary PTSD: horror frozen in memory in children and adults; diagnosing the aftermath of domestic violence, sexual assault, or combat. • Symptoms and the Brain: flashbacks, dissociation and shrinkage of the hippocampus; hypervigilance, disturbed sleep and expansion of the amygdala. • Secondary PTSD: health workers at-risk of experiencing other’s trauma. • Treatment: cognitive restructuring, EMDR, SSRIs, beta blockers and newer drugs. Is PTSD a lifelong disorder? Clinical Insights and Tools • Close Relationships: daily habits of people who maintain close relationships. • Problem Solving: how to dispute irrational fears using the ABCDE method. • Social Intelligence: how to reframe issues to resolve conflicts. • Coping With Adversity and Loss: one door closes, another opens. • Pathways to Mindfulness: sources of serenity. • The New Science of Happiness: what happy people know; keys to developing a more resilient, peaceful, and fulfilling life.
