Many primary care health professionals feel uncomfortable screening for depression and suicide. The reasons are varied. Some do not feel adequately trained to address mental health issues, others feel these issues are overly complex as well as time and labor intensive within the context of a busy primary care practice. Our four presenters, representing the fields of psychiatry, psychology, and social work, will offer easily implemented screening tools and practices that will help flag patients at high risk for depression and suicide and recommend how to efficiently manage and refer them to the appropriate level of care. As completed suicides climb in the United States, particularly among youth, the elderly, and minority populations, the primary care provider may be the best professional able to identify those at high risk of suicide, especially in light of the finding that most people who complete suicide visited their primary care professional within three to six months of their death. Asking about depression and suicide in primary care can save lives!

This lecture will discuss the progression of psychodynamically-oriented psychotherapy with a patient in the community clinic setting over the course of one year. Through the lens of object relations theory, we will explore how the patient’s early childhood experiences of both hostile and withdrawn caregivers influenced her presenting symptoms and defense mechanisms. We will also examine how countertransference impacted the therapeutic alliance.

Obsessive-Compulsive Disorder (OCD) is a common and often debilitating mental health condition characterized by unwanted intrusive thoughts (obsessions) and repeated distress-reducing behaviors (compulsions). Frequently misunderstood, misdiagnosed, and mistreated, this series of lectures will demystify OCD and related disorders and the most effective protocols for helping those who suffer from them. Attendees new to or heavily experienced in treating OCD and related disorders will gain knowledge from multiple perspectives. This unique format features six lectures from top experts in the field, scheduled across three sessions over the Spring 2024 season. This series includes experts presenting on the concept of growth mindset in OCD treatment, the use of acceptance and commitment therapy (ACT) in OCD treatment, an update on the state of pharmacology in OCD, and sessions on the treatment of perfectionism, hoarding, and health anxiety.

The American Psychiatric Association’s Principles of Medical Ethics emphasize competence, respect and up-to-date knowledge as a basis for appropriate professional behavior toward lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender and queer (LGBTQ) patients. After providing some definitions of helpful terms, this presentation then reviews historical psychiatric attitudes towards LGBTQ patients that could be construed, at best, as patronizing and, at worst, overtly hostile. In modern clinical practice, as opposed to trying to “cure” homosexuality or “transsexualism,” LGBTQ patients are helped to live their lives according to their own natures and desires. This presentation outlines some common clinical questions raised by LGBTQ patients—what is known and not known about the origins of homosexuality and transgender expression, sexual orientation conversion efforts (SOCE), therapist self-disclosure, how therapists should address LGBTQ patients, and controversies surrounding treatment of transgender children—as well as ethical issues raised in these clinical encounters.

Depression is one of the leading causes of disability worldwide. Although treatments are available, a large proportion of patients fail to respond to first line treatments, such as oral antidepressants and psychotherapy, even after multiple treatment attempts. They are then considered to have treatment resistant depression (TRD), a condition which puts them at heightened risk of suicide. Several neuromodulation approaches have been developed which may be effective for TRD. Neuromodulation approaches are those which involve directly affecting the brain through the introduction of electrical, magnetic, or sonic energy. These include electroconvulsive therapy, deep brain stimulation, transcranial direct current stimulation, vagal nerve stimulation, transcranial magnetic stimulation (TMS), and low intensity focused ultrasound, to name just a few. In this talk we will have a special focus on accelerated theta burst forms of TMS, which have recently demonstrated high rates of response and remission in TRD, following just a few days of treatment.

Burnout is a term we have all heard, used, and experienced. A less frequent concept is secondary traumatic stress or vicarious trauma, on the spectrum with burnout and compassion fatigue. This time, we focus on the clinicians, the providers, and not directly our patients. The goal of this presentation is to discuss what those are, how to identify them, recognize how they may play out in the legal arena, and how to address them when we fall anywhere on that spectrum.
