Based on the programme developed and trialled by psychologists at the University of Maastricht, and published in the journal Movement Disorders in 2020, the webinar explores the structure and effectiveness of this programme.
The webinar includes discussion of the programme’s session-by-session approach, which incorporates psychoeducation, relaxation techniques, cognitive restructuring, and exposure therapy.
The University of Maastricht has published a manual for mental health professionals, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy for Anxiety Disorders in Parkinson’s disease, which can be downloaded online for free from their website.
