Tourette’s and related tic disorders are relatively common and often impairing conditions. While pharmacotherapy has historically been considered the first-line (and only) active treatment for tics, medication use in children has been limited by safety and tolerability concerns. Over the past two decades behavioral treatments, most notably, the Comprehensive Behavioral Intervention for Tics (CBIT), have demonstrated efficacy and tolerability for tics in youth and adults, leading to designation as a first-line treatment, when available, for treating tics by the American Academy of Neurology and European and Canadian medical academies. This presentation will review the clinical aspects of Tourette’s and other tic disorders most relevant for treatment and describe the theoretical underpinings, implementation, benefits, and long-term outcomes of CBIT with reference to other treatment modalities. Core treatment elements will be demonstrated to illustrate their role in treatment. Following completion of the presentation, attendees should be able to describe the core components of this treatment.

Plastics production and use has grown exponentially since its commercial introduction in the 1950s. Although it has produced many societal benefits, the large-scale and indiscriminate use of plastics, especially in the last few decades, has led to large-scale environmental and health problems. Two findings raise significant neuropsychiatric concerns: micro- and nanoplastics are present in human brains and plastics-related endocrine-disrupting chemicals can cross the placenta and the blood-brain barrier. This talk will provide an overview of the plastics crisis and its relevance to mental health.

Cognitive behavioral therapy was first applied to psychotic disorders by Aaron Beck in 1952, however the first clinical trial of cognitive behavioral therapy for psychosis (CBT-P) was not completed until 1992. CBT-P has been shown to reduce distress related to psychotic symptoms by up to 40% and improve overall functioning. The evidence supporting its use is so robust that it is recommended in the American Psychiatric Association (APA) guidelines as well as the National Institutes of Health and Clinical Excellence (NICE) guidelines for treatment of schizophrenia. However, this treatment remains underutilized and often unavailable for people in the United States experiencing psychosis due to lack of experienced practitioners and lack of understanding regarding the benefit of CBT-P in the treatment of psychotic disorders. This presentation aims to improve understanding of the evidence base surrounding CBT-P in the treatment of people experiencing psychosis and to describe the process of CBT-P.

This presentation introduces the Happy, Relaxed, and Engaged (HRE) Framework, emphasizing its role in Functional Behavior Assessment (FBA) and behavior interventions. Participants will learn to identify key indicators of high-quality HRE states and understand how these conditions enhance behavioral outcomes, emotional regulation, and learning. The session explores the impact of environmental factors on achieving HRE and presents data collection techniques to assess these states. Case study examples will be presented to demonstrate the importance of assessing HRE for students with complex behavioral needs.

There is excellent emerging data on the contribution of ultra-processed foods to mental health outcomes (and other medical conditions). Ultra-processed food tends to contain a high number of food additives. One class of food additives in particular, flavor enhancing food additives, tend to create an unnatural attraction to these processed foods, while also having the ability to affect nervous system functioning in certain individuals. The main component of these additives is glutamate, an amino acid which has the ability to stimulate neurons in the tongue (making food taste better) while also having the ability to affect nervous system function elsewhere. This presentation will teach clinicians about this dietary exposure and how it has been tied to mental health disorders. Currently, clinicians do not receive training in nutrition, and thus, are unable to offer advice in this area. This talk will educate attendees about the role of glutamatergic neurotransmission in mental health and will also provide easy-to-use tools for helping people change their eating behaviors.

Obsessive-compulsive disorder (OCD) is rarely a standalone condition. Complex cases often present with comorbidities such as severe anxiety, depression, ADHD, ASD, Tic Disorders, eating disorders, personality disorders, and sometimes a combination of these and other conditions. In this presentation, we will explore the nuances of treating OCD in complex cases, highlighting the importance of clinical expertise in recognizing and addressing these comorbidities and adapting treatment. We will discuss tailored interventions that account for the interplay between conditions, ensuring more comprehensive and effective care for individuals facing these challenging symptom presentations and very complex cases.

This lecture is for mental health providers who want to develop a better understanding about how military culture can impact patients’ experience of their symptoms and of mental health treatment. It provides an overview of military culture and cultural competence, with a focus on the short comings of a sociologic approach to cultural competence. The benefits of a patient centered approach utilizing the cultural formation interview (CFI) from the DSM-5-TR is then introduced, along with an overview of efforts to develop a military version of the CFI, to include it’s recent inclusion in the DSM-5-TR. Participants are then challenged with clinical cases involving military patients that benefit from utilization of the military version of the CFI.
