Join us for our monthly live webinar learning series Addiction Psychiatry Advanced Psychotherapy Curriculum targeted towards Addiction Psychiatrists, developed by the American Academy of Addiction Psychiatry (AAAP) in collaboration with Oregon Health and Science University (OHSU) and NYU School of Medicine.

Suicide is the 11th leading cause of death in the United States (2023). CBT approaches to the suicidal patient have been proven to reduce rates of future attempts (Brown et al 2005; Tarrier et al 2008). Active and collaborative work to reduce hopelessness and specific anti-suicide plans are important features of this approach to patients. This webinar will briefly review research on CBT for treating suicidal patients. Particular attention will be paid to development of the CBT elements of a safety plan in a depressed patient. Managing hopeless cognitions will be explored with participants.
