Please join us for a hybrid CEU event at Anxiety Institute - Palm Beach or online via Zoom.
The goal of Positive Psychology is to approach life’s challenges by identifying core strengths and values in the service of building resilience and developing healthy coping strategies. By promoting a growth mindset and supporting active engagement, positive psychology may be of critical benefit when addressing the avoidance and fear-based responses that accompany anxiety disorders in adolescents and young adults.
Learning Objectives
- Participants will learn the basics of the anxiety response and autonomic system recovery, including the activation of the sympathetic nervous system and counter-balance of the parasympathetic nervous system.
- Participants will learn the primary tenets of Positive Psychology, including a strengths-based approach to promote active flourishing and well-being.
- Participants will learn to utilize positive psychology techniques in the treatment of anxiety disorders by cultivating a growth mindset among their clients and counteracting the avoidance that accompanies the fear response.
