Anxiety Disorders in Children and Adolescents: Recognizing & Treating
the Emerging Epidemic is organized by PESI HealthCare and will be held
on Dec 11, 2019 at The Riverside Hotel, Boise, Idaho, United States of
America. This Conference has been approved for a maximum of 6.0
contact hours / 6.0 clock hours of continuing education instruction /
6.0 AMA PRA Category 1 Credit(s)™. Description: The 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. Other 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.
