Treatment of Panic Disorder 

(1-Day or 1/2-Day)

The standard cognitive-behavioral treatment of panic disorder is now pushing further into the confrontational. We will review the essential knowledge base and therapist skills needed for comprehensive treatment of panic disorder. We will begin with psychosocial development that leads to the panic-prone personality, the benevolent purpose of symptoms, brief calming and focusing skills, skills for worries and anticipatory anxiety, and success imagery. We will then venture into the world of permissive and provocative therapy, placing significant attention on shifting the patient's orientation toward panic.

Participants will learn how to divide and conquer: to interrupt anticipatory anxiety and then to manage physical symptoms using cognitive strategies, paradox, pattern disruption, exposure and interoceptive exposure, and peeling away their ever-present "safety crutches." Skills with be demonstrated and practiced.
