Professional Program in Evidence-Based Therapy for Anxiety and Mood Disorders

Note: As of June 1, 2017, we will no longer accept new certificate registrations for this program. Courses in the existing curriculum will continue to run as scheduled for a limited time.

An increasing number of evidence-based treatment approaches can help people overcome some of the most common anxiety disorders, including obsessive-compulsive disorders (OCD), post-traumatic stress disorders (PTSD), and social and more specific phobias.

In the Professional Program in Evidence-Based Therapy for Anxiety and Mood Disorders, you and fellow clinicians learn about some of the major causes, diagnostic issues, and prevention and treatment approaches.
