Anxiety and Adaptation in Nature and the Family

Presenter: Victoria Harrison, MA, LMFT

Anxiety, defined as “Emotional reactiveness to threat,” is a capacity that is necessary for survival and adaptation rather than a diagnosis to avoid. Theoretical discussion and audiotaped interviews with clients will illustrate how anxious reactions work for good and explore questions about the future of human adaptation in the face of threats in the natural and social environment.

The conference day provides a maximum of 4.5 hours of Category I continuing education credit for social workers and for counselors. Please note- a separate registration is required for CEU/CEs.
