Break people up into groups based on DSM symptoms for that disorder and then have them hypothesize what might be causing it, how that symptom might serve to protect them in some way, or what it might be communicating and what they can do differently to meet that same need to keep themselves safe and healthy.
Ever wondered how to make a real impact in managing anxiety and depression? In this episode of the 'Counselor Toolbox Podcast', Dr. Dawn-Elise Snipes takes you through practical interventions that work for both group and individual settings.
