Don’t Believe Everything You Think: Identifying and Managing Thought Traps

Wed May 8, 2024 12:00–1:30 PM

Description

Every one of us is prone to cognitive distortions, which are habitual modes of thinking that are often inaccurate and negatively biased. These thought traps impact our emotions, increase our anxiety, and threaten our sense of self. Maybe we jump to conclusions, catastrophize, or tend to think in “all-or-nothing” terms. The good news is there is power in identifying which thought patterns we are prone to and how they manifest. This webinar will review the most common thought traps so that we can learn to identify them in the moment and shift our thinking in the long term. The webinar will review strategies to reframe your thinking that are based in cognitive-behavioral therapy, an evidence-based framework for managing anxious thoughts.Presenter: Michael Marquez, Psy.D.; PsychologistRegister
