pre-recorded\r\nAs part of a live continuing\u00a0\u00a0 education webinar on-demand CEUs are\r\nstill available for this presentation\u00a0\u00a0 AllCEUs.com\/Anxiety-CEU I’d like to welcome everybody to today’s\r\npresentation on best practices for the\u00a0\u00a0 treatment of anxiety I am your host, Dr. Dawn Elise Snipes now not too long ago we did\r\na presentation on strengths-based biopsychosocial\u00a0\u00a0 approaches to addressing anxiety while\r\nThose are wonderful you know I thought maybe\u00a0\u00a0 we ought to look at you know what’s some of the\r\ncurrent research so I went into PubMed which is\u00a0\u00a0 I don’t know it’s a playground for me it’s where\r\nYou find a lot of journal articles and you\u00a0\u00a0 can sort I sorted by articles that were\r\ndone and meta-analyses that were done within\u00a0\u00a0 the past five years so that gives us an idea\r\nAbout current research I mean there’s a lot\u00a0\u00a0 of stuff that is still the same like some of\r\nThe medications that were known to work ten\u00a0\u00a0 years ago are still known to be you know good\r\nfirst-line treatments but there are also some\u00a0\u00a0 newcomers that we’ll talk about and there are\r\nalso some changes that we’re going to talk about so we’re going to explore some common causes\r\nfor anxiety symptoms in order to treat it, we\u00a0\u00a0 really need to and of course, this does play into\r\nthe biopsychosocial aspect we really need to\u00a0\u00a0 understand kind of what causes it because anxiety\r\nthat’s caused by for example somebody having a\u00a0\u00a0 racing heart may be different than anxiety that’s\r\ncaused for somebody who has abandonment issues so we’re…\r\n<blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\">\r\n<p dir=\"ltr\" lang=\"en\">Look at this… 👀 <a

it\u00a0\u00a0 they’ve used it in defusing aromatherapy in\r\nhospital emergency rooms and they found that it\u00a0\u00a0 reduces stress and irritability the people in\r\nemergency rooms and I’ve been to enough emergency\u00a0\u00a0 rooms over the course of the years to know that\r\nPeople who are in emergency rooms typically are not in the\u00a0\u00a0 best mood so if it can help those people then\r\nIt’s probably going to have some sort of an\u00a0\u00a0 effect so psychologically helping clients realize\r\nthat their body thinks there’s a threat for some\u00a0\u00a0 reason that’s why it triggered the threat response\r\nsystem which is what they call anxiety, so they\u00a0\u00a0 need to figure out why is there really a threat\r\nYou know sometimes it’s like the fire alarm going\u00a0\u00a0 off in my house it just means that the windows are\r\nopen and there’s a strong breeze there is no fire\u00a0\u00a0 there is no problem there’s just a malfunction\r\nIt’s a false alarm A lot of times clients get this threat reaction they get this stress\r\nreaction and it’s not a big deal right now so they\u00a0\u00a0 can start modifying what their brain responds to\r\nand again, those basic fears that a lot of people\u00a0\u00a0 worry about failure rejection loss of control the\r\nunknown and death and loss distress tolerance is\u00a0\u00a0 one of those cognitive interventions that has\r\ntaken center stage in anxiety research and\u00a0\u00a0 it isn’t about controlling your anxiety you know\r\nhelping people recognize their anxiety acknowledge\u00a0\u00a0 it and say okay I’m anxious it is what it is\r\nHow can I improve the next moment instead of\u00a0\u00a0 saying I’m anxious I shouldn’t be anxious I hate\r\nbeing anxious and slang with that anxiety let it\u00a0\u00a0 go just accept it is what it is have the client\r\nlearn to start saying I am feeling anxious okay so distracted don’t react because I explain to them\r\nThe whole notion of feelings comes in crest and go out\u00a0\u00a0 in about 20 minutes It’s like a wave so once they\r\nacknowledge their feeling if they can distract\u00a0\u00a0 themselves for twenty or thirty minutes you know\r\nObviously, they figured out there’s no real threat if they can distract themselves for twenty or\r\nthirty minutes those emotions can go down and then\u00a0\u00a0 they can deal with it in their wise mind and encourage\r\nthem to use distancing techniques instead of\u00a0\u00a0 saying I am anxious, or I am terrified or whatever\r\nHave them say I am having the thought that this\u00a0\u00a0 is the worst thing in the world I am having the\r\nthought that I could not handle this because thoughts\u00a0\u00a0 come and go and that comes from acceptance and\r\ncommitment therapy functional analysis makes it\u00a0\u00a0 possible to specify where and when with what frequency\r\nwith what intensity and under what circumstances\u00a0\u00a0 the anxious response is triggered so it’s\r\nimportant that we help clients develop the\u00a0\u00a0 ability to do functional analyses on their own so\r\nwhen they start feeling anxious, they can stop and\u00a0\u00a0 say okay where am I what’s going on how intense\r\nIs it what are the circumstances, and they start\u00a0\u00a0 really trying to figure out what causes this for\r\nthem so they can identify any common themes from\u00a0\u00a0 their psychoeducation about cognitive distortions\r\nand techniques to prevent those circumstances or\u00a0\u00a0 mitigate them can be provided so if the client\r\nknows that they get anxious before they go into\u00a0\u00a0 a meeting with their boss and it’s usually a high\r\nintensity of anxiety okay so we can educate them and help them identify what fears that may be related\r\nto techniques to slow their breathing calm\u00a0\u00a0 their stress reaction and help them figure out\r\ntimes in the past when they’ve handled going in\u00a0\u00a0 and talking to their boss and it really wasn’t\r\nthe end of the world you know there’s lots of\u00a0\u00a0 different things we can do there for them there\r\nbut the first key and it gives them a lot of\u00a0\u00a0 a huge sense of empowerment to start becoming\r\ndetectives in their own life and going okay now\u00a0\u00a0 under what situations does this happen positive\r\nWriting this was another really cool study each\u00a0\u00a0 day for 30 days the experimental group and this\r\nwas high school-aged youth in China but you know\u00a0\u00a0 the experimental group engaged in 20 minutes of\r\nwriting about positive emotions they felt that\u00a0\u00a0 day so they’re writing about anything positive\r\nthat make them happy that made them enthusiastic give them hope whatever long-term expressive\r\nwriting positive emotions so after 30 days it\u00a0\u00a0 appeared to help reduce test anxiety by helping\r\nthem develop insight and use positive emotion\u00a0\u00a0 words so it got them out of the habit of using\r\nthe destruction and doom words and encouraged them\u00a0\u00a0 to get in the habit of looking at the positive\r\nthings and being more optimistic it’s a really cool activity that clients can try it’s…\r\n\r\n<img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/images.pexels.com\/photos\/6951520\/pexels-photo-6951520.jpeg?auto=compress&amp;cs=tinysrgb&amp;h=650&amp;w=940\" \/>\r\n\r\nThe Market
