Ken and ADAA
"Prior to joining ADAA I wrote and produced several self-help audio programs including The Anxiety Solution Series, a 12-hour audio course, Stress Free, a compilation of six guided meditations, and The Personal Growth Series, a collection of seven hypnosis sessions. Since becoming a member of ADAA and being elected to their Board of Directors, I have completed two books: Break Free from Anxiety and The Emetophobia Manual. Although my practice in Los Angeles was focused on treating anxiety disorders, prior to joining ADAA, I did not know other therapists who shared the same specialty. Attending my first ADAA conference in 2013 changed that. The presentations filled the gaps in my knowledge and I met and become friends with other experts in the field. The articles I have written and the webinars and videos I have produced for the ADAA website on health anxiety, the fear of driving, and emetophobia, have helped thousands of people around the world and they have generated close to one hundred patients in my private practice. ADAA is an organization that uniquely benefits anxiety sufferers, therapist, and researchers."
David Rosmarin, PhD, ABPP

I have been a member of ADAA for nearly a decade and became more actively involved in the Public Education committee during in the COVID-19 pandemic (2020-2021). ADAA is a wonderful organization that unites researchers and clinicians, while servicing the general public. We live in a time of great emotional distress - virtually no family is untouched by mental disorders, particularly anxiety and depression. Yet, according to the National Institute of Mental Health, more than 50% of individuals who need professional services do not seek it out. ADAA is doing a tremendous service to de-stigmatize anxiety and depression and provide much-needed information and resources to many individuals in need. It is my great honor and privilege to be a part of ADAA.
