SUMMARY:SSW Webinar: Basic Psychopharmacology for People with Co-Occurring Diagnoses
DESCRIPTION:This webinar takes a look at best practice as it applies to prescribing (or not prescribing) psychotropic medications for a person in recovery with both a mental illness and substance abuse (MISA) diagnosis. Each medication class will be discussed in terms of benefits and side effects and\, whenever possible\, recommendations of one medication type over another for the dually-diagnosed consumer. Introductory material relating to the neuroanatomy and physiology of the central nervous system will also be presented and linked to why some medications should be prescribed and why others should be avoided for this problem. \n\n\n\nInstructor:\nCraig Strickland\, PhD\n\n\n\nFor mo0re information and registration: click here

SUMMARY:SSW Webinar: Not Just Benzodiazepines: Alternative Treatments of Anxiety and Depression
DESCRIPTION:The primary goal of this webinar is to explore non-pharmaceutical treatment of depression and anxiety. The number of people looking for non-pharmaceutical interventions is increasing in both the psychiatric and addiction fields. One need look no further than the desire to decrease benzodiazepine (BZD) use. Treatments to be discussed include herbal and amino acid substances as well as vagal nerve stimulation.

SUMMARY:BHI/CAHBIR/RWJMS Faculty Candidate Seminar: Dr. Sheila Shanmugan
DESCRIPTION:Sheila Shanmugan\, MD\, PhD \nUNIVERSITY OF PENNSYLVANIA – SCHOOL OF MEDICINE \n“Towards Personalized Reproductive Psychiatry” \nReproductive psychiatry is currently a field of trial and error. We don’t know which patient’s disorders will improve\, worsen\, or persist; we also don’t know which treatment will work best for a patient until she tries it. Optimizing early intervention is particularly critical in reproductive psychiatry\, not only because puberty\, pregnancy\, and menopause are times of heightened vulnerability to psychopathology\, but also because the consequences of delaying intervention during these reproductive time points are often long-lasting. In this talk\, I will describe how I envision combining neuroimaging and machine learning to answer these clinical questions in women’s mental health. First\, I will present my recent work on sex differences in personalized functional networks. Next\, I will present my graduate work on indicators of and treatments for perimenopausal executive dysfunction. Finally\, I will describe the path I envision towards developing sex-specific machine learning models that aim to personalize early interventions in reproductive psychiatry. \nJoin Zoom Meeting: https://rutgers.zoom.us/j/97288891767?pwd=cmhlSjhkOFhObHhjQTNaVExsR0VSZz09 \nMeeting ID: 972 8889 1767 \nPassword: 123456 \nOne tap mobile: +16465588656

SUMMARY:SSW Webinar: Harm Reduction: From Principles to Practice
DESCRIPTION:This interactive webinar will discuss all aspects of harm reduction. Participants will be able to identify at least 3 principles of harm reduction work. Participants will be able to define harm reduction. Participants will also be able to differentiate between a successful harm reduction approach and less successful approaches and identify at least two reasons behind unsuccessful approaches. Participants will be introduced into the diagnostic criteria of the DSM and dimensional criteria of the ASAM 3\, in the lens of determining the need of admission to treatment and continued care need from a harm reduction treatment perspective. Participants will be able to identify three different medicated assisted treatments (MAT)\, and discussion of medicinal marijuana being added as an MAT option.

SUMMARY:NJ Cares Webinar: Public Health Barriers in Addressing the Opioid Epidemic
DESCRIPTION:As the opioid epidemic intensified in recent years\, more experts have acknowledged that the crisis is a public health emergency that will require a comprehensive strategy to address. While increased focus on public health has produced positive results\, there are still many barriers within the system that limit prevention\, treatment and recovery.

SUMMARY:SSW Webinar: The Opioid Crisis in NJ: Current Trends and Evidence-Based Treatment Options
DESCRIPTION:This interactive webinar will discuss the latest developments and trends regarding natural opiates\, semi-synthetic opioids\, and synthetic opioids. Participants will be able to identify national and local NJ trends with regards to prescribing practices and new legislation\, opioid overdoses and trends with opioid use. Participants will be able to distinguish the difference between which drugs are considered naturally occurring opiates\, which are considered semi-synthetic opioids and which are considered synthetic opioids. Participants will be introduced into the assessment of and treatment of Opioid Use Disorders via the DSM 5 criteria\, the latest nationally recognized medicated assisted treatment and the non-medication assisted treatment approaches when working with clients. Participants will be able to identify three different medicated assisted treatments (MAT)\, and discussion of medicinal marijuana being added as an MAT option. Webinar participants will be introduced to a harm reduction treatment paradigm and will be able to identify at least 3 different harm reduction principles when working with clients. Finally\, participants will engage in an interactive case that will develop throughout the webinar and have different objectives (e.g.\, assessing a proper level of care\, and then incorporating a harm reduction treatment orientation with the client in regards to their MAT decision process).
