Psychologists, licensed mental health professionals, and medical professionals commonly encounter clients suffering from panic disorder with agoraphobia. The Unified Protocol (UP) is a flexible, module-based, transdiagnostic treatment designed to treat the whole spectrum of emotional disorders, and it has been shown to be an effective, evidence-based intervention for this condition. In this workshop, participants will learn the basic structure of the UP and how to adapt each module to understand and treat core symptoms of panic anxiety and avoidance behavior.
