Course Summary 

This two-part course will provide introductory and practical information concerning evidence-based assessment and treatment of Anxiety, OCD and Hoarding Disorder from a cognitive-behavioral orientation. In the morning session, a 101-style overview will be presented, with some introductory summaries of evidence-based assessments and treatments. The afternoon session will provide a more in-depth, step-by-step approach to assessment, case conceptualization, treatment planning, and treatment delivery. Assessments will include both brief questionnaires as well as clinician-delivered interviews. Treatments will focus on exposure and response prevention and cognitive therapy techniques. The afternoon session will also incorporate case studies and small group activities.

Meet the Presenter 

Jason Moser, is a Professor in the Michigan State University Department of Psychology and Neuroscience program.

He moved to Michigan State University in 2009 where he founded the Clinical Psychophysiology Lab.

With 20 years of experience working with anxiety disorders, OCD, and PTSD, he studies how overwhelming anxiety makes it harder to control emotions, stay focused, and bounce back from mistakes and ways to overcome it. He is a Licensed Psychologist in Michigan who actively sees 2-3 clients a week and regularly supervises PhD student trainees in MSU’s Clinical Science program.
