Having an over- reactive nervous system can be an important, yet overlooked feature of anxiety disorders (e.g., OCD, “not just right” OCD, and OCD rooted in disgust. This workshop will provide an overview of nervous system processing, sensory dysregulation, and how reactivity in the sensory system can elicit anxiety or behaviors that look like anxiety. Understanding the important and unique role of the sensory nervous system and how it can affect specific psychiatric disorders is key to shedding light on difficult clinical presentations. This workshop will provide a look at the nervous system (sympathetic and parasympathetic) as it relates to learning, emotion, and behavior. Specific attention will be placed on “not just right” OCD, phobias, oppositional behaviors, issues involving disgust, misophonia, and other anxiety disorders that can be heavily impacted by sensory dysregulation. We will introduce a novel treatment approach for individuals who have underlying sensory regulation issues. Participants will learn how to identify sensory dysregulation when it is present, as well as how to effectively create a treatment plan that addresses both anxiety and sensory dysregulation. Attention will be placed primarily on childhood disorders, however we will offer guidance and examples relevant to adults as well.
Learning Objectives
- Gain a general understanding of the nervous system and how glitches in this system can impact emotions, cognitions, and behavior.
- Will become familiar with the transdiagnostic nature of sensory dysregulation and how it interacts with and can contribute to anxiety disorders.
- Learn how to effectively create a treatment plan for disorders that are heavily impacted by the sensory nervous system.
