Here is a question: Do you understand and most importantly know how to treat this VERY common psychological problem?
I don’t have to tell you that social anxiety is very different from simple shyness. It is much more debilitating and extremely common. It is estimated that 1 in 8 of the population suffers from it. Because it often co-exists with other psychological problems that 1 in 8 figure is a very conservative estimate of how many of your current clients are suffering from it.
Have you assessed it?
Do you know how?
Would you know how to treat it even if you were able to identify it?
Our training module on WORKING WITH SOCIAL ANXIETY (2 DAYS) on 28 - 29 April 2016 will skill you up to do just that.

It’s two days of detailed explanation, demonstrations and practice.
- You’ll become familiar with Beck’s as well as Clark & Wells’ models.
- You’re learn where your clients’ problems primarily lie – with the “Anticipatory Phase”, with “Situational Exposure” or with “Post Event Processing”
- You’ll understand how your clients’ “inhibitory” and “safety behaviours” often make their problems worse – and simple things you can do to help them
- You’ll learn how your clients’ feelings of humiliation and shame develop and how you can begin to reverse them
- You’ll be able to teach your client how to achieve Attentional Focus Shift which enables them to radically change their perspective on social situations
- You’ll be able to collaboratively develop “Social Mishap Exposures” with your clients to radically reduce their anxiety in social situations as well as developing other specific social anxiety “Behavioural Experiments” to help them moderate unhelpful assumptions and beliefs.
So don’t delay. Places are limited.

About this Blog
This is our first attempt to join the exciting world of blogging and bring to you all the fresh and hot news about the world of psychology and, of course, about your favourite training company. This is our new enterprise and we are finding our way in this mysterious world of blogging cautiously (but surely...) :-)
We are hoping to move our popular SDS Delegate Debate into this blogging format in the future and looking forward to lively discussions here with you. We are planning to start with publishing already existing SDS Delegate Debates — with comments received from you. Then we'll move to the current news as well as will run new delegate debates there.
Feel free to leave comments to any of the posts — whether they are old debates, the news or new debates. As you can guess — every blogger loves his readers and LIVES for the comments. :-) We are just the same. You don’t need to register in order to be able to comment. You can leave your feedback as “Anonymous”, however, may we ask you to sign you name (or nick) at the end of your comment (even if you are commenting without logging in) so that we know how to address you.
Another useful tool that SDS Blog provides us with is availability of Polls that enable us to find out your views about various subjects. Polls are located on the left panel of the page and updated regularly. Please feel free to vote. You can see the results of each poll by clicking the button "Results".
If you wish to register — nothing can be easier — you just open a Google account — most of you, surely, already use one.
Your comments are read by SDS Consultants regularly and — in many cases — replied to.
The blog is moderated — mainly to protect you and other readers from spam and irrelevant comments.
All posts are tagged — hopefully it'll help you to find your way around there.
Wish us luck and please join the list of our followers.
