Certified Clinical Anxiety Treatment Professional (CCATP) Training Course Applied Neuroscience for Treating Anxiety, Panic, and Worry
Advances in neuroscience have provided a roadmap for the brain that shows us the key to working with anxious minds. But knowing how to interpret the complex map neuroscience provides has left many clinicians wondering… How do I unlock the complicated inner workings of the brain to guide my client sessions?
In this comprehensive training, you’ll see how neuroscience can inform why, how and what techniques can help your clients stop the symptoms of anxiety — even the tough to treat panic attacks, worry, rumination, nausea, and pounding hearts.
Now you can join Catherine Pittman, Ph.D., HSPP, for a comprehensive step by step clinical training on how you can revolutionize your anxiety treatment approach with the power of neuroplasticity.
More than just the neurobiological “whats and whys,” you’ll also learn the “hows” of actual treatment — so you’ll know exactly how to empower your clients with strategies to resist anxiety-igniting cognitions.
You’ll end this course fully prepared to integrate brain-based strategies that motivate lasting change for calming the mind — even in your most anxious, worried, traumatized, or obsessive clients.
