This workshop uses discussion and audience practice to develop its core premise: the key to successful treatment of panic disorder is to help people recognize, and disarm, their persistent efforts to oppose and control it, and the use of humor and paradox can greatly facilitate that work.

Participants will learn to help clients develop a view of panic disorder as a trick, rather than a disease or a mental illness that must be opposed or cured. Interventions will be presented that help clients find evidence supporting this view in their own lives, and use it to reshape the client's view of panic and anxiety in ways that create progress. Interventions derived and borrowed from several schools of psychotherapy (Paradoxical Therapy, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, and Acceptance and Commitment Therapy) will be presented, discussed, and practiced.


This session was recorded live at the 2022 Annual ADAA Conference in Denver, CO. Please note this session is not available for continuing education credits.

Dr. Carbonell and ADAA

"I was a newly licensed psychologist in 1987, in my first job in a Chicago suburb, and volunteered to facilitate a local anxiety self-help group. That was my introduction to everything about anxiety disorders that I hadn’t learned in graduate school. What an education it was! I first learned of ADAA there (it was the Phobia Society of America at that time). Eager to learn more, I attended my first conference probably 1987 or ’88, in San Francisco, and was really dazzled by my first Reid Wilson workshop, among others. The conferences for me, and the educational resources for clients and consumers. And I’ve met some great people.”

“In the beginning, it gave me a clinical focus when it was quite rare to specialize in anxiety disorder treatment, and that has really defined my career.”
