This class focuses on practical strategies to manage intense anxiety and panic attacks, including deep breathing exercises and using cold water for self-soothing.
We'll introduce two core CBT skills to help you reframe anxious thoughts: “evidence gathering” to challenge irrational fears, and “exploring alternative explanations” to see situations from a different perspective.
In this class, we’ll identify common thinking errors that fuel anxiety and discuss strategies to manage repetitive thoughts and negative emotional loops.
We'll teach you the “PLEASE” technique to build emotional resilience and explore how gradual exposure to fears can help reduce anxiety over time.
This class focuses on how to set healthy boundaries in relationships and how to confront and process unpleasant emotions without resorting to avoidance.
