Collaborating with other providers
It is common for individuals seeking treatment for anxiety to have consulted with psychiatrists and other physicians about their difficulty. Collaboration maximizes consistency and generalizability, and therefore effectiveness, of behavioral interventions. We refer to and collaborate with the following professionals as needed:
- Psychiatrists, pediatricians, primary care physicians, and other medical specialists
- Neuropsychologists
- Clergy members to help address religious obsessions
- Professional organizers
- Tutors
- Dietitians
- Support group leaders
- Medical specialists and caregivers
- Social skills training group leaders
- Residential treatment programs (e.g., for OCD, BDD)
- Dialectical Behavior Therapy, eating disorder, and substance abuse treatment specialists
- Educational consultants
We are happy to participate in school meetings (i.e., IEP, 504 planning, RTI) or provide documentation that facilitates a comprehensive treatment approach.
