A 3.5-Hour Training with Lindsay C B Murphy, PhD., LCMHC
12:00pm-4:00pm
130 Pembroke Road, Suite 150, Concord, NH 03301
Presentation: This workshop explores how anxiety manifests throughout different developmental stages and how adolescents can be “drawn” to the use of cannabis to reduce symptoms of anxiety. The workshop provides education around cannabis research and how it affects development, functioning and explores ways to intervene in early stages of an anxiety diagnosis to reduce the dependency on cannabis use with our youth.
As a result of this training, participants will be able to:
- Explain typical adolescent neurophysiology and psychosocial development;
- Identify the presentation of anxiety through various developmental stages;
- Utilize research around how cannabis use affects the anxiety symptoms and functioning; and
- Compare alternative approaches, interventions and ways to support the reduction in use of cannabis in adolescents.
