Improv for Anxiety for Teens

for ages 14-18

This innovative class combines ensemble-based improv, along with cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) to help teens overcome the fear and avoidance associated with social anxiety disorder.  A Second City instructor will lead the class. Mark Pfeffer, Director at the Panic Anxiety Recovery Center (PARC), will be at the first session to welcome you. Mark will also facilitate a weekly treatment/support group to help students apply Improv and CBT to real-life. A pre-service orientation and post-service follow-up session are provided to parents of teens who participate.

Although “Improv for Anxiety” was developed for people with social anxiety disorder, teens with other anxiety disorders and parents are welcome to visit http://www.beyondanxiety.com/emails/improv/index.php for more details.

Prerequisites: Pre-registration consultation required, prior to enrollment. Contact Mark Pfeffer at 312-543-4793 or email director@beyondanxiety.com.
