Social Anxiety: Step by Step Techniques to Overcome Fear, Shyness & Social Phobia



Do you work with kids who constantly feel out place in social situations?  Do they refuse to go to school when faced with a presentation in front of the class? Do they prefer not to eat lunch at school so they don't have to endure conversations with peers while eating?

Join Kimberly Morrow, LCSW and Elizabeth Dupont Spencer, LCSW-C for a strategy filled, interactive workshop using a form of CBT called exposure and response prevention.  We will show you how exposure to embarrassing situations, challenging automatic thoughts and practicing common social interactions will help your clients develop the skills needed to take back their social life and prevent more devastating problems in their future.
