Anxiety is embedded in the fabric of modern life. Worry, insomnia, suboptimal decisions, avoidance - the brain clockwork of anxiety is hidden from the eyes of therapist and client alike.

This intensive course focuses on the neurobiology of anxiety. We will explore how anxiety is triggered and perpetuated by the brain and how the bodily effects of anxiety are generated. We will talk about neurobiology of panic disorder, generalized anxiety disorder and social anxiety.

How does the brain unlearn the associations between cues and danger if the cues no longer predict danger? And why is it so important for anxiety disorders
Neurobiology of trait anxiety
Social anxiety and social anxiety disorder
Neurobiology of panic and panic disorder
Anxiety and maternal behaviour
Anxiety as a conflict between "I want" and "I am afraid": motivation and avoidance through the prism of the brain

Two formats in one:

"... Since her first years of medical school, neuroscience has been providing the most satisfying answers in Ekaterina's quest to understand human nature, life, universe and everything. Brain science is inseparable from behavioral science, and studying human behavior and the brain naturally grew into an interest in cognitive technologies and a coaching practice."
