Robert L. DuPont, M.D., Founding President

“Its innovative self-directed style fills a large gap in our current treatment techniques. It is strongly recommended as an adjunct to medical treatment.”

“Years ago my patients all carried worn out copies of Claire Weeks’ excellent self-help books around in their pockets. Now they have a modern update from another gifted therapist, Dr. Reid Wilson. This loose leaf program and tape set offer a comprehensive set of easy to use suggestions for the self-directed recovery from panic disorder. It will be useful by itself or used alongside medication treatment of panic disorder.”

James C. Ballenger, M.D., Chairman and Professor Director, Institute of Psychiatry Medical University of South Carolina
