Course Description
Agoraphobia can significantly restrict a client’s functioning and quality of life. Effective treatment requires careful assessment, clear differential diagnosis, and structured intervention.
This training provides a practical framework for assessing and treating agoraphobia using evidence-based approaches. The focus is on strengthening diagnostic clarity, distinguishing agoraphobia from other anxiety disorders, and implementing a structured evidence-based treatment plan.
You will explore how avoidance patterns develop and maintain symptoms, how to construct targeted intervention hierarchies, and how to support clients through exposure-based work in a way that is collaborative and clinically sound.
