Is it Psychosis? Understanding and Differeintating Severe Mental Health Presentations
At any point in time, students may present with a complex array of symptoms that can leave one asking, "Is this psychosis?" Overlapping social-emotional and behavioral complexities can make it difficult to ascertain what is actually occurring. This training will provide information on how to recognize severe mental health presentations. Case vignettes will be provided. Appropriate accommodations and treatment strategies for the academic setting will be reviewed.
Participants Will
- Learn how to differentiate psychosis from other mental health presentations
- Learn strategies to support students with severe mental health in the classroom
- Learn interventions to support students with severe mental health in counseling sessions
