Mood disorders and suicide are increasing, especially in teens and young adults. There has been an explosion of research in the last 10 years, and new versions of the DSM and ICD have appeared. Should any of this change how we practice? The presenter uses a set of clinical cases to illustrate points of controversy and makes practical recommendations. This intermediate workshop focuses on clinical implications, practical evidence-based tools, techniques to clarify differential diagnosis, and effective treatment options. Participants learn how to improve assessment and treatment using free yet high-quality resources, including more than 200 webpages with PDFs of measures and free automated scoring for more than 70. Original webcast date: August 12, 2021

Learning Objectives:

  • Apply at least three new assessment approaches to improve differential diagnosis and measure treatment response.
  • Integrate risk factors and test results to guide their clinical actions for assessment and treatment.
  • Find curated free tools to use in assessment and therapy.
