Address the Growing Youth Mental Health Crisis with Evidence-Based Solutions.
Since COVID-19, rates of anxiety and depression among youth have skyrocketed, with nearly 1 in 4 experiencing clinically significant symptoms. Now more than ever, mental health professionals are needed to bridge the gap between research and real-world therapy, delivering evidence-based care to young people in acute need.
Discover a Flexible, Transdiagnostic CBT Approach to Tackle Complex Youth Cases.
The Unified Protocols for Transdiagnostic Treatment of Emotional Disorders in Children and Adolescents offer a unique approach to supporting youth struggling with a range of emotional concerns, including anxiety, depression, trauma, and obsessive-compulsive symptoms. Designed for flexibility, this adaptable approach is ideal for cases where comorbid or complex presentations are common, making it a great fit for therapists in community and school settings.
Empower Youth to Manage Intense Emotions and Build Resilience.
This transdiagnostic CBT program focuses on helping youth regulate strong emotions through accessible, practical techniques. With tools like emotion-focused education, mindfulness, cognitive restructuring, problem-solving, and a range of behavioral strategies—including exposure and activity-based techniques—this treatment provides clients with the skills to address multiple emotional issues within a single framework. It’s also been proven effective in brief and telehealth formats, making it easy to tailor to individual client needs.
Engage in Hands-On Training to Implement This Approach with Confidence.
This interactive training includes video examples, live demonstrations, and active practice methods like role-plays to illustrate the flexible nature of these techniques. You’ll gain real-world skills to integrate transdiagnostic CBT into your practice, helping young clients manage emotional challenges with confidence. Join us to expand your therapeutic toolkit and make a lasting impact on the lives of children and adolescents.
