In this episode of our special pediatric psychopharmacology series, Dr. Jeffrey Strawn and Dr. Katherine Dahlsgaard review how psychiatric prescribers can incorporate cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) practices into medication checks with pediatric patients who have anxiety disorders. Specifically, they discuss the importance of using exposures to reduce avoidance behaviors that are characteristic of and feed anxiety disorders.
