asked by: admin on April 8th, 2009

Drexel University offers a free online treatment program for adults
(ages 18-65) suffering from social anxiety disorder and living in the
United States. This program is part of a research study examining the
efficacy of a treatment for social anxiety delivered through an
internet-based program called Second Life.

This cognitive-behavioral treatment consists of 12 weekly hour-long
sessions with a therapist. You will be taught techniques to help cope
with anxious thoughts and feelings. You will also have the opportunity
to practice these techniques and improve your social skills. No
medication is involved. If you enroll in this study, you will be asked
to fill out several online questionnaires before, during, and after
your treatment period.
