Summary

In each scenario, a master therapist works with a client diagnosed with social anxiety. The vignettes demonstrate four evidence-based treatments for social anxiety: calming/coping strategies, cognitive restructuring, situation exposure, and social skill training. Each vignette is followed by a critique of the demonstration and helpful suggestions for clinical practice. The DVD opens with a discussion of social anxiety and diagnosing social anxiety. This is followed by an overview of empirically supported treatments for social anxiety with a strong emphasis on how to incorporate their primary objectives and interventions into the entire treatment plan.
