Moreover\, men remain depressed at high rates even after accessing care\, due in part to barriers around adherence. In this presentation\, we’ll review epidemiology by life stage\, look at why treatment is not always effective for males\, and explore emerging male-specific screening tools and treatment approaches. \n\n\n\nAfter attending this webinar\, participants will be able to: \n\n\n\n\nList atypical presentations of depression in males\, including symptoms that fall outside traditional DSM criteria\, such as irritability\, aggression\, substance use\, and risk-taking\n\n\n\nApply male-specific screening and monitoring tools\, such as the Male Depression Risk Scale (MDRS/MDRS-7) and Gender Inclusive Depression Scale (GIDS)\, to detect cases and treatment effects that standard instruments may miss\n\n\n\nEvaluate 3 evidence-based treatment options and sex-specific considerations\, including pharmacotherapy\, psychotherapy\, exercise\, and emerging treatments (esketamine\, psilocybin\, testosterone augmentation)\n\n\n\n\nDisclaimer: The views and opinions expressed by the speakers during these presentations are solely those of the speakers and do not reflect the views or positions of the organization or any affiliated entities.

This presentation will examine the relationship between OCD\, depression\, and suicidality. \n\n\n\nBy the end of this presentation\, participants will be able to: \n\n\n\n\nDescribe the relationships among OCD symptom severity\, comorbid depression\, suicidal ideation\, and suicide risk\n\n\n\nDifferentiate suicidal obsessions associated with OCD from suicidal ideation involving desire\, intent\, or planning\n\n\n\nIdentify at least four clinical factors that may increase suicide risk among individuals with OCD\n\n\n\nApply principles of suicide risk assessment while avoiding unnecessary reinforcement of OCD-related reassurance-seeking and compulsive behavior\n\n\n\nIntegrate suicide risk management with evidence-based OCD treatment\, including Exposure and Response Prevention (ERP) therapy in clinical treatment\n\n\n\n\nDisclaimer: The views and opinions expressed by the speakers during these presentations are solely those of the speakers and do not reflect the views or positions of the organization or any affiliated entities.

While these tools may improve efficiency and expand access\, they also raise ethical concerns related to confidentiality\, informed consent\, accuracy\, bias\, professional competence\, and the therapeutic relationship. \n\n\n\nIn this one-hour webinar\, media psychologist and technology expert Dr. Don Grant will examine real-world uses of AI in behavioral healthcare. Participants will consider AI-assisted documentation\, clinical decision support\, mental health chatbots\, and client use of generative AI\, then apply a practical framework designed to preserve human oversight\, professional accountability\, and client trust. \n\n\n\nAfter attending this webinar\, participants will be able to: \n\n\n\n\nIdentify at least four ethical risks associated with using AI in behavioral health and other professional settings\n\n\n\nDifferentiate appropriate AI-assisted tasks from decisions requiring direct professional judgment and human oversight\n\n\n\nDescribe strategies for protecting confidentiality\, obtaining informed consent\, evaluating bias\, and verifying AI-generated information\n\n\n\nApply an ethical decision-making framework to common scenarios involving documentation\, treatment planning\, communication\, and client use\n\n\n\n\nCE credits available for Addiction Professionals\, Counselors\, Marriage & Family Therapists\, Nurses\, Physicians\, Psychologists and Social Workers. \n\n\n\nDisclaimer: The views and opinions expressed by the speakers during these presentations are solely those of the speakers and do not reflect the views or positions of the organization or any affiliated entities.
