An Introduction to Deconstructing Anxiety | 1.5 CE Credits | Free Event

Mar. 1, 2025

10:00 AM - 11:45 AM (EST)

Virtual Event
1.5 CE Credits
“Deconstructing Anxiety” is a new approach for rapidly uncovering the root causes of anxiety. It introduces powerful techniques for releasing the resistance that keep anxiety alive, getting at its source and transforming it into a sense of high purpose and meaning.There is a “core fear” at the root of all anxiety, expressing itself in five primary universal themes of loss:
  1. abandonment (loss of love)
  2. loss of identity
  3. loss of meaning
  4. loss of purpose
  5. fear of death
We develop our primary defenses as our best attempt to protect ourselves from these fears, but always at too great a cost. This leaves us constantly holding vigil, on the lookout for the resurfacing of the threat. We build our entire personality upon this fear-defense dynamic. When it gets out of control, an anxiety disorder develops. The theory and techniques discussed in this webinar will teach you how to uncover the core fear and chief defense quickly and reliably. Armed with this knowledge, new strategies for dismantling the chief defense are proving to be highly effective. Come prepared for an exciting adventure into the deepest regions of the unconscious, where the hidden fears at the source of our clients’ difficulties live, making them available for rapid and profound transformation.
