Feeling Blue or Depressed? Take Control of Your Moods هذه الدورة تدرس باللغة الإنجليزية

تفاصيل الدورة

My course helps students understand how therapists diagnose and then treat major depression as well as bipolar conditions. Useful techniques for beating the blues are explained at the start of the course. For the more serious topic of depression, we cover the DSM-5 criteria for diagnosis. This includes an exploration of the five domains where people might be showing clinical symptoms as well as the time dimensions that are critical for intervention. For bipolar conditions, the four major indicators of mania are explained along with the DSM time parameters. 

Examples of both mood problems are offered in the videos along with exercises for application that students can use for suggesting appropriate treatments. Videos are used throughout the course along with Powerpoint slides. A review of key concepts is included toward the end of the course for students to review what they have learned and retained.
