Early in my career, I recognized a disconnect between neuroscience research and popular treatment strategies. While depression and anxiety are clearly rooted in altered brain function, most clinicians were not taught about specific neural circuits and neurotransmitters that contribute to these disorders. As a result, treating mood and anxiety disorders were often incomplete – many solutions uncovered by research were overlooked and strategies relied heavily on medication without any changes in a client’s action, activity and environment. There had to be a better way to treat these clients and improve outcomes!

Today, I know that using proven cognitive-behavioral interventions like Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), Mindfulness-Based Cognitive Therapy (MBCT), and Behavioral Activation Therapy (BAT) in conjunction with exercise, social support and positive habits yields powerful therapeutic effects. Expanding your tool kit of brain-based interventions allows you to accommodate your clients’ different challenges. And, when your clients understand that what feels “wrong” is actually the activity and chemistry of particular brain circuits, it improves treatment buy in and compliance.

Join me for this must watch conference and I will show you how to put the power of neuroscience to work for you and your clients:

• Utilize brain-based cognitive therapies like ACT, MBCT, and BAT for mood and anxiety disorders
• Apply new techniques informed by the latest neuroscience research to improve treatment outcomes
• Discover how simple interventions modulate the activity and chemistry of key brain regions
• Learn how to teach clients about their brain

Are you ready to expand your treatment tool box with the latest in neuroscience techniques?

Let me help you take your practice to the next level. Your satisfaction is guaranteed.

---

1. Communicate findings regarding neuroscientific research exploring the connection between key brain regions, neurotransmitters, and mental health and recognize how understanding neurological processes can help mental health professionals improve clinical outcomes.
2. Develop a case conceptualization that draws upon neuropsychological principles and can help inform therapeutic methods and goals with clients suffering from anxiety and depression.
3. Analyze how strategies focused on calming and training the amygdala can be used in therapy to help alleviate symptoms of anxiety.
4. Establish how the brain encodes habits, characterize how habits relate to stress, and connect this information to cognitive behavioral approaches you can use in-session to intervene in habit loops and reduce the stress response.
5. Maximize capacity for change in clients with neuro-informed explanations that shift the way they feel about their pathology and engage them in the therapeutic process.
6. Evaluate the latest neuroscientific research regarding the impact of gratitude on key neural circuits, its benefits, and explore ways to operationalize gratitude exercises that clients can use in their daily lives to impact their symptomology.
