Having fears is a normal human experience, but oftentimes they can interfere with our daily lives.
Join us to learn about principles of cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT), a science-based kind of psychotherapy that is effective for managing thoughts, emotions, and behavior patterns that make people feel trapped. In therapy, the ultimate purpose of helping people who feel anxious is not to make the fears go away but rather to see that they are able and courageous enough to confront them. This 1-hour presentation includes a Q&A session.
Speaker: Axel Valle specializes in cognitive behavioral therapy for anxiety disorders. He is a trained psychologist and has worked in private practice and taught undergraduate courses at Universidad Iberoamericana, Mexico City. He received a doctoral degree in clinical psychology from the Wright Institute. He currently works as a postdoctoral fellow at Stanford School of Medicine.
