Breaking the Power of Anxiety - 4 Session Group Therapy (CBT/Biblically based)

    Breaking the Power of Anxiety is a 4-week group workshop on Zoom with group process meant to help people struggling with anxiety. Each session will consist of approximately 45 minutes of lecture and education about anxiety:  its symptoms, its causes and how to overcome it.  The lectures are Biblically based and bring in current psychological information and research based on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy.  After the lecture, there will be about 1 hour for participants to process the information in a small group setting.  Questions will be presented to engage participants with information and techniques of the lecture.  The purpose here is for participants to gain self-awareness of how anxiety strikes them and its roots, along with skills for self-regulating and self-soothing when they are beginning to feel anxious.  

    The group process follows the rule - Invite, not inflict - meaning you are always invited to participate with questions, but never required to or forced to participate.  There will be "homework" for the participants to pay attention to their own thought patterns and emotional reactions during the week so that they can learn to regulate their physiological responses that lead to fight and flight reactions which can lead to generalized anxiety or panic attacks.

Dates:  Mondays:  December 7, 14, 21 & January 4
Time 7-9 pm (Philippines time)
Cost: P1000 covers all 4 sessions
