In Person
The mental health crisis continues to grow. Rates of depression, suicide, anxiety disorders, PTSD, and substance use disorders have increased in recent years and mental disorders are now one of the leading causes of disability throughout the world. Physicians, mental health clinicians, and many other health care professionals are being called upon to help.
This intensive, three-day, in person course is designed to address this urgent need. Participants will receive the latest information in the fields of psychiatry and mental health. Numerous aspects will be covered, including recent advances in psychopharmacology, psychosocial treatments, and assessment of psychiatric patients. A wide range of diagnoses and populations will be covered, including mood and anxiety disorders, substance use disorders, eating disorders, disorders of late life, sleep problems, psychotic disorders, and borderline personality disorder.
Our widely acclaimed faculty features internationally renowned speakers as well as expert clinicians in specialized practices. They will decisively review and synthesize recent advances in psychiatry in an easy-to-understand manner, and help clinicians apply these evidence-based treatments to current circumstances. Panel presentations, Q&A sessions, and other engaging learning formats will be used to assist the learners in developing new strategies they can apply in their practice settings.
