Misophonia - What You Can Do to Help

Misophonia is a newly defined and highly prevalent disorder characterized by unusually strong aversive emotional (e.g., anxiety, anger) and behavioral (e.g., avoidance, escape, confrontation) responses to specific, repetitive, everyday sounds. These are commonly oral (eating, chewing), nasal (sniffling), or throat (e.g., throat-clearing) sounds made by others, and often the triggering source for responses are parents, family members, and others close to the sufferer. Misophonia has been proposed for inclusion as a new diagnosis in the ICD-11 and scientific research has been rapidly evolving to understand its features and possible treatment approaches.

Mental health providers have an important role in assessment and treatment of misophonia. In this webinar, participants will learn about misophonia with a focus on assessment methods and mental health treatments that focus on individualized process-based approaches using evidence-based and transdiagnostic interventions.
