Spend two action-packed days learning about the newest advances in psychopharmacology and contemporary trends in medication management. From her unique perspective as a prescribing clinical psychologist, Caroline teaches psychopharmacology thoughtfully, with an emphasis on the experience of the client. Caroline’s extensive 17 years of experience in mental health and passion for her 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 drug reactions. This training, designed for counselors, nurses, psychotherapists, psychologists, and other mental health professionals, provides the information you need in order to best help your clients.

This conference allows time for exploration of underrepresented areas, including ADHD, chronic pain, sleep, eating, and substance abuse disorders. Take home specialized guidelines for geriatrics and pregnant or nursing women. Discuss how the DSM-5® may impact 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 learn the “inside scoop” about newly released medications. Caroline’s engaging style makes her an excellent teacher. She uses metaphors from daily life to illustrate complex neurological and psychological concepts. Her vivid, down to earth teaching approach generates an easy guide for providers.

Her presentation includes many take home points that you can use to teach your clients about mental illness, and how medications work. Update your psychopharmacology knowledge, and discover why attendees rave about Caroline, with comments like, “Wonderful presenter and teacher,” and, “Extremely knowledgeable presenter who was very collaborative with the audience.”
