The Backwards Bicycle and Other Neuroscience Tricks for Anxiety, Panic and, Worry!  

This CE You! training will help clinicians improve their understanding of neuroscience and include scientific knowledge into their counseling sessions. (Don’t worry, its not brain surgery.) Participants will discover client friendly explanations of these relevant concepts which can enhance client engagement in treatment.

Dr. Heidi Schreiber-Pan integrates brain-based strategies for calming the anxious mind with client communication techniques that motivate change in your clients. Heidi’s approach promotes adherence to treatment and strengthens the therapeutic alliance – which is essential when working with anxious, worried, traumatized, or obsessive clients.

Dr. Schreiber-Pan will give you tools and techniques to:

• Identify and treat the roots of anxiety in both the amygdala and the cortex
• Explain “the language of the amygdala” in an accessible, straight forward way
• Identify how the cortex contributes to anxiety, and empower clients with strategies to resist anxiety-igniting cognitions
• Therapy is about change – it’s about creating a new self – and incorporating the concept of “rewiring the brain” is a potent method for stopping anxiety in its tracks.

The Big Picture: Guiding Clients through Grief and Loss

Loss and Grief are a normal part of the human life cycle. But knowing that, doesn’t make it any easier. Even experienced clinicians can feel at a loss when helping clients work through the pain of a loss. This six hour training will look at skills necessary to work with people experiencing grief due to the death of a loved one as well as other losses such as divorce, illness, and even the current loneliness and loss experienced by so many during the COVID-19 pandemic.

This training will look at current literature on the topic of grief and loss, including complicated grief. Participants will learn skills and the generally accepted guidelines to work with various populations including adults children and adolescents.
