Mental Health and Psychosocial Support for Common Mental Disorders
While there are a range of simple and effective treatments that can be provided to patients suffering from CMD, unfortunately, most patients do not receive these treatments. This course will equip you to recognize and help those impacted by CMD.
It will provide foundational knowledge about stress, explore a variety of counseling techniques and strategies, practice two different kinds of talk treatments, and offer guidance on when to refer a patient to a mental health specialist.
We’re looking forward to learning with you.
