Two-Day Tinnitus Management Workshop

Two-Day Tinnitus Management Workshop
Sponsored by Hope for Tinnitus

Details:
Hope For Tinnitus (a division of SoulSpring Counseling Inc) is very pleased to offer a two-day workshop for those experiencing the challenging impact of tinnitus.

The Tinnitus Management Workshop has been created based on a treatment approach called Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT). There is evidence based support in the literature that suggests that CBT is effective in the management of patients suffering from the effects of tinnitus. When CBT is applied to tinnitus, many individuals experience a significant improvement in the quality of their life, suggesting that CBT has a positive effect on the way in which people cope with tinnitus.

By developing skills in these areas, individuals can turn despair into hope and anguish into acceptance. Many people have reported that by using these methods, they gain a sense of control over their reactions to tinnitus.

Upon completion of the Tinnitus Management Workshop, you will:

    * Receive information on the audiological and neurological mechanisms of tinnitus
    * Understand the impact of tinnitus on daily life
    * Learn strategies and techniques to alter your response to tinnitus
    * Reduce symptoms experienced as a result of tinnitus
    * Experience hope that quality of life can be enhanced with the application of these skills

Participants will receive information, concrete tools and strategies, handouts and home practice exercises. Participation for both days is required in order to receive the full benefit of the materials presented.
