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.
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. The curriculum is tailored specifically to address the educational needs of faculty and fellows of Addiction Psychiatry residencies throughout the country, and open to all AAAP members. The course directors for this program are Christopher Blazes, MD, Associate Professor of Psychiatry at OHSU, and David Stiffler, MD, Assistant Professor of Psychiatry at NYU.
Participants will be introduced to advanced techniques from clinical experts that can be readily applied to real world clinical situations in the absence of formal, intensive psychotherapy training. Interact with peers and subject matter experts on topics such as narcissism, motivational interviewing, cognitive behavior therapy, and more.
