Course Description:

Day 1:

The DSM-5® manual, released in May 2013, requires substantial changes in the classification and diagnosis of mental disorders. These changes reflect the explosion of new information in psychopathology, neuroscience, and treatment over the past 15 years plus the need for a stronger link to the International Classification of Diseases (ICD).

This seminar specifically emphasizes changes from the DSM-IV® to DSM-5®. You will walk through the DSM-5®manual and highlight the revisions, new diagnoses, and new specifiers that are most relevant to your daily practice. Information about the ICD-10, designated to be HIPAA’s official code book for mental disorder in 2014, will also be integrated throughout. Case examples and case studies will help you transition from making DSM-IV® multi-axial diagnosis (Axis-I-V) to effective diagnosis with the DSM-5® and ICD-10 coding systems without axis.

Day 2:

Substantial numbers of clients with DSM-5® diagnoses will be treated with a combination of psychological and pharmacological treatments. Newer drugs are being introduced to treat mental disorders based on better understanding of the neurobiological contributions to mental disorders and the latest pharmacological research.

This seminar will update and increase your understanding of:
  • The neurobiological underpinnings of major DSM-5® diagnoses
  • The types and effects of drugs used to treat these diagnoses
  • The responsibilities of the non-prescribing therapist to clients taking psychiatric medication

Specifics of the pharmacological treatment and drugs of choice for the DSM-5® Depressive, Bipolar, Schizophrenia Spectrum, Anxiety, OCD, Sleep-Wake, ADHD and Neurocognitive disorders will also be discussed. Unique to this seminar is information on the common types of psychotherapeutic drugs that client’s abuse (prescription drug abuse) and methods for prevention and early detection.
