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.

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.
