ABCT Child Anxiety Special Interest Group (CAASIG) is an interest group of mental health professionals and is not a certifying organization. The CAASIG, therefore, does not make specific referrals, but does make its list of members and specialties available.
This service does not include and does not intend to confer opinions, ratings, or reviews of participating professionals. ABCT and the CAASIG assume no responsibility with respect to the selection of a therapist and the outcome of the therapy. This list is provided as a public service and includes the names and clinical practice information of ABCT Child Anxiety SIG Full Members who choose to participate in this service. The absence of the name of a behavior therapist from this list in no way implies that they are not a competent behavior therapist; it only implies that they do not participate in this particular group.
