How To Treat Social Anxiety Disorder: Cognitive Interventions That Work

Presented by Jennifer Shannon, LMFT

Did you know that Social Anxiety Disorder is the fourth most common mental health disorder? Fears of making mistakes, of sounding foolish, of appearing anxious or being judged, ridiculed or rejected, while universal, can be crippling for clients and can present unique treatment challenges for therapists .Have you tried cognitive interventions unsuccessfully? Is it difficult to get your clients to think more realistically about how others perceive them? This workshop will teach you practical and effective interventions that you can immediately use with your clients.
