Health anxiety is a common and distressing condition that can significantly impact an individual’s quality of life.

This training will provide clinicians with a comprehensive understanding of how health anxiety manifests, how it is maintained, and how to treat it effectively using exposure-based CBT. Participants will learn how to identify symptoms of health anxiety, how to structure CBT sessions, and how to design individualized exposure exercises that target the core fears driving their clients’ anxiety. By the end of the training, clinicians will be equipped with practical tools to help clients break the cycle of health-related anxiety and regain confidence in their ability to manage uncertainty.

Suicide remains a critical public health concern, and mental health clinicians play a key role in assessing and preventing suicide risk. This training provides an in-depth exploration of the Interpersonal Psychological Theory of Suicide (IPTS) and its clinical implications. This training will review the scientific research supporting IPTS, highlighting empirical findings that validate the theory's application in clinical settings. Participants will also gain an understanding of how the core premises of IPTS contribute to suicide risk. Finally, clinicians will learn how to integrate IPTS into suicide risk assessment, prevention strategies, and treatment planning, ensuring that their interventions are informed by evidence-based principles. By the end of this training, participants will be better equipped to apply IPTS concepts in their work, enhancing their ability to recognize warning signs, tailor interventions, and improve outcomes for individuals at risk.
