As part of our launch of DASC Academy, we are continuing our mission to disseminate top quality, empirically-based treatments here in Chicago. Our first big event is an intensive training series the first week of October. We are offering a series of three small group, personal, and intensive workshops on three different in-demand topics. All will be led by DASC staff, and seating will be very limited. First, Dr. Rodney Benson will walk you through the ins and outs, the dos and don'ts of exposure therapies for PTSD. Next, Dr. Lauren Neaman and Becky Martin, LPC will lead an experiential workshop on CBT for insomnia. Finally, Dani Walsh, LSW and Molly McLeese, LCPC will present the latest approaches in empirically-driven interventions for GAD and OCD.
