If you are like a lot of therapists, many of your clients are taking psychotropic medicines prescribed by a number of different health care professionals. Despite who wrote the script, it is your responsibility to know your clients' symptoms and reactions to medications, and to coordinate their care.
This intensive focuses on providing practical and useful information about antidepressants, anti-anxiety medications, and medication for insomnia, as well as the tools to handle the ethical decisions that surround psychopharmacology. Get to the "bottom line" on the most prescribed antidepressants, anti-anxiety medications, and medication for insomnia on the market today, and learn how to discuss scope of practice with your patients in order to optimize their care. The goal is for you to leave better prepared to communicate with your clients as well as the prescribers.
