Medication Management for Mood and Anxiety Disorders

Join the OPA’s Spring Conference where CalPsychiatry’s Josephine McNary, M.D. will give an overview on Medication Management for Mood and Anxiety Disorders via Zoom.

This is an overview on the use of psychiatric medications in the treatment of mood and anxiety disorders. This is an adjunctive program to assist psychologists in monitoring their clients. It will also help psychologists determine when it is appropriate to consider recommending medication to their clients. We will also discuss the different types of medication used, their efficacy in treatment of mood and anxiety disorders, and common side effects. We will also address personal/social/cultural stigmas surrounding use of medications.
