3:30pm – 4:30pm,
ASA Koffler Great Room and Zoom
When we started our Anxiety Disorders Clinic at the University of Michigan 50 years ago, we did not know much more than other psychiatrists. But our research mission was soon expanded in response to the hundreds of people who called, desperate for help. We soon had a long waiting list and patients coming from all over the country and even from overseas. Gradually, we learned how to understand and treat these fascinating and often very serious disorders. The global answer is that psychotherapy, behavior therapy, cognitive therapy and medications all can work. Randy Nesse will summarize what we know now about the diagnosis and treatment of anxiety disorders, but the emphasis will be on the need for an individualized assessment of each person and the highlighting of some especially fascinating cases.
