Spend two action-packed days learning about the newest advances in psychopharmacology and contemporary trends in medication management. From her unique perspective, Fran Miller teaches psychopharmacology thoughtfully, with an emphasis on the experience of the client. Fran’s years of experience in mental health, and her passion for clients, shine through in the detail and thoroughness of her presentation.
Clients often only have a few minutes with their prescriber and require additional support. It is vital that you are able to answer their questions, help manage side-effects, and understand reactions. Designed for counselors, nurses, psychotherapists, psychologists and other mental health professionals, Fran provides the information you need in order to best help your clients.
This conference allows time for exploration of underrepresented areas including ADHA, sleep and substance use disorders. Take home specialized guidelines for geriatrics, pregnant or nursing women, and clients with chronic pain. Discuss how the DSM-5® has impacted prescribing patterns and the use of psychotropics in newly defined diagnoses. In addition to a general “nuts and bolts” review of medications, you will examine case examples, discuss medication controversies and how to effectively collaborate with prescribing practitioners. You will find this conference to have the most up-to-date medication information and how to use it most effectively with your client.
