Many of the Anxiety Treatment Center of Greater Chicago clinicians attended the annual Anxiety and Depression Association of America conference held last month in Miami. In addition to tremendous opportunities to learn the latest research and network with international experts, ATC staff led educational sessions of their own. Dr. Schmaus and Dr. Zayed conducted a presentation focused on helping mental health professionals better treat patients and their families who are dealing with complicated and severe anxiety and mood disorders. Dr. Alden and Dr. Siegel spoke about treating the fear of vomiting (emetophobia) using a cognitive-behavioral approach. By attending this annual conference, our staff learn new strategies and techniques, enabling us to enrich our practice and provide our patients with optimal, cutting-edge care.
