SUMMARY:Anxiety Disorders in Children and Adolescents: Recognizing & Treating the Emerging Epidemic - Sioux Falls\, SD
DESCRIPTION:Course Description: \nThe increasing rate of stress and trauma to children\, which includes divorce\, family breakdown\, violence in society\, the media\, and a failing school system\, has produced a “shell shocked” generation suffering from anxiety in many cases. The challenge for clinicians is to recognize anxiety in children and help them cope. \nStephanie Sarkis\, Ph.D.\, will teach you how and why anxiety develops in children and adolescents. She will present practical treatment strategies that can be applied immediately. The seven key anxiety disorders along with case examples to be addressed include: \n\nSeparation Anxiety Disorder\nPanic Disorder\nOveranxious Disorder\nObsessive-Compulsive Disorder\nSocial Anxiety Disorder\nPhobias\nPost-Traumatic Stress Disorder\n\nOther co-occurring disorders (e.g. behavior problems\, medical conditions\, depression\, ADHD\, learning disabilities\, selective mutism) will also be discussed. Emphasis will be on creative interventions involving insight-oriented\, cognitive-behavioral\, biological\, mindfulness\, expressive arts and family systems approaches. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nObjectives: \n\nApply the “Three Ingredients” template for understanding how\, why and when anxiety develops in children.\nRecognize and modify the sources of stress in children and adolescents.\nExplain the anxiety management skills to use with young clients.\nIdentify effective treatment strategies for each of the seven key anxiety disorders.\nIdentify steps that schools can take to reduce student anxiety.\nApply self-regulation skills and strategies to children.\n\n\n\n\n\n\nOUTLINE \nNature and Causes of Anxiety \n\nHow anxiety develops in children\nThree ingredients in all anxiety disorders\nThe “anxiety personality” – assets and liabilities\n\nSeven Key Anxiety Disorders \n\nSeparation anxiety disorder\nPanic disorder\nOveranxious disorder\nObsessive-compulsive disorder\nSocial anxiety disorder\nPhobias\nPost-traumatic stress disorder\n\nCo-Occurring Disorders \n\nDepression\nADHD\nLearning disabilities\nSelective mutism\n\nTherapeutic Approaches \n\nCognitive-behavioral\nBiological\nMindfulness\nExpressive Arts\nFamily Systems Approaches\n\nInterventions and Self-Regulation Strategies \n\nThe Floating Technique for panic anxiety\nExposure and Response Prevention (ERP) for OCD\nMindfulness for worry\nSolution Focused Intervention for worry\nGroup Therapy guidelines for social anxiety\nVisualization Desensitization for separation anxiety\nThree Question Technique for parents struggling with child separation anxiety\nThree Step Technique for managing children’s stress\nYoga games and breathing techniques for relaxation training\nLifeSkills Program for generalized anxiety\nVirtual Reality approach for phobias\nBaby Buddhas meditations for anxious preschoolers\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nRegister Here for the Seminar!

SUMMARY:Changing the ADHD Brain: Moving Beyond Medication - Bowie\, MD
DESCRIPTION:Many persons diagnosed with ADHD prefer not to take medication. There are various reasons for this including side effects and concerns with long-term use. In this seminar\, you will learn more about these reasons\, as well as alternative interventions for ADHD. \nLooking at ADHD from a developmental perspective\, we will consider reasons for the apparent increase in ADHD diagnoses over the past two decades. By understanding the way the brain works in ADHD\, you will be able to better identify a variety of strategies to significantly impact the nervous system and positively influence symptoms of ADHD in your clients. \nNot only will you walk away with information about some of the most common non-medication interventions for ADHD such as computerized cognitive training\, mindfulness meditation and neurofeedback\, you will also learn a variety of practical strategies that can be implemented immediately and at low cost. \nWe will navigate the vast research on exercise\, movement\, diet\, sleep\, disruptive technologies\, supplements and the impact of the environment on ADHD\, summarizing the findings and applying the information to “real life”. You will leave this seminar with the tools and knowledge to develop a holistic approach to working with adults and children with ADHD. \nObjectives: \n\nRecognize the benefits and drawbacks of non-medication treatments for ADHD versus medication treatment.\nDetermine the most common non-medication treatments for ADHD.\nIdentify the reasons why many patients/clients request non-medication treatments.\nDescribe the safety and efficacy of non-medication treatments for ADHD.\nDetermine whether the benefits of alternative treatments outweigh the costs to the patient/client.\nDiscuss how nutraceuticals/supplements and diet may or may not influence symptoms of ADHD.\n\nRegister Here for the Seminar!
