Psychopharmacology for Mental Health Clinicians
Medication management plays a pivotal role in the treatment of mental health conditions. Long-standing psychotropic drug classes continue to play a prominent role in contemporary psychopharmacology, while newer medications are being developed to treat mental disorders based on an expanded understanding of neurobiology and pharmacological research. As such, it is essential for healthcare professionals, particularly those providing mental health services, to have a working knowledge of psychotropic medications.
This seminar examines the mental health conditions frequently encountered in clinical practice, a review of medication management, and evidence-based psychological and behavioral approaches employed in complementing pharmacological treatment protocols.
