Conquering Anxiety: Concrete Clinical Strategies for Treating Anxiety and Depression

Presented by Caroline Buzanko, Ph.D., R. Psych

Think you’ve mastered everything you need to know about anxiety management? Think again – you might be surprised!
When it comes to treating anxiety, even the most experienced professionals can unknowingly perpetuate ineffective methods. For instance, are you relying on reducing anxious feelings to gauge the success of your interventions? Do you use fear hierarchies? Do you advocate deep breathing or relaxation techniques as anxiety-busting strategies? If so, you may be unknowingly contributing to your clients’ cycle of anxiety.
If you’re committed to elevating your understanding of emotional health and improving outcomes for anxious clients, this workshop is indispensable. It is essential to revolutionize your approach to anxiety and emotional well-being. Go beyond the surface to explore the intricacies of anxiety and emotion regulation. Seamlessly blending the latest research with practical techniques, this workshop equips you with actionable insights that can be applied to real-world cases immediately.

Why Attend?

  • Unlock a robust toolbox of effective interventions backed by cutting-edge research.
  • Gain a deep, nuanced understanding of anxiety, going beyond traditional methods that may inadvertently perpetuate anxiety.
  • Every principle is illuminated with real-life case studies, ensuring the knowledge you acquire is directly applied in your practice.
  • Walk away with a fresh perspective about anxiety and an arsenal of strategies that actually make a difference.
  • Critically examine common anxiety-management practices (e.g., symptom reduction, fear hierarchies, relaxation techniques) and identify how they may unintentionally maintain anxiety.
  • Explain anxiety and emotion regulation using contemporary, research-informed frameworks that move beyond traditional coping-based approaches.
  • Differentiate effective vs. ineffective interventions for anxiety based on current empirical evidence.
  • Apply evidence-based strategies that target the underlying mechanisms of anxiety rather than short-term symptom relief.
  • Integrate real-world case examples to inform clinical decision-making and improve outcomes for anxious clients.
  • Implement practical, immediately usable tools to support lasting emotional regulation and resilience in clinical or educational settings.
