Webinar Description:

As a taboo topic that can be uncomfortable for both client and therapist to discuss, this presentation delves into working with an excessive fear of incontinence. Participants will be prompted to reflect on the sensitivities of discussing fears, maintaining factors and anxious behaviours of an incontinence phobia. Within the framework of Cognitive Behaviour Therapy, participants will learn about the different techniques to use with a specific phobia, which can be implemented regardless of therapeutic orientation. The presentation will provide therapists with the scripts and questions needed to assist clients in decreasing their overall fears.
