Health Anxiety Part 2: Learn How to Face Your Fear of Death and Overcome Health Anxiety
Recorded on December 7, 2020
Featuring: Ken Goodman, LCSW
The illness you fear may not be the illness you have. Do you worry about cancer, heart attacks, or a brain aneurism? Do you regularly google your symptoms or reexam parts of your body that are concerning? If so, you might have Health Anxiety. ADAA board member, Ken Goodman, LCSW, presents the second of two webinars on this debilitating disorder. In Part One, Ken explained health anxiety and provided tools and a strategy for overcoming it. In Part Two, Ken dives further into the treatment and teaches how to incorporate exposure therapy into recovery. This LIVE webinar will also include a former patient who suffered with fears of ALS and MS. There will be plenty of opportunities to ask Ken questions about your specific fears and query his former patient about her journey to freedom. It is recommended that you watch Health Anxiety Part One (available at no cost on-demand) before participating in the second webinar.
Please note that registration is required and that there is a $10.00 fee for this event to help ADAA continue to offer this type of educational content.
