Dr. Aaron Weiner
- Live Webinar
Monday, December 11th
1:30 PM EST – 4:45 PM EST
Overview:
Although medical & recreational marijuana programs are legal in 39 states and cannabidiol (CBD) is available nationwide… Confusion still exists regarding what cannabinoids can & can’t do. Since most health and behavioral health professionals do not receive formal education about cannabis.
As for THC, the evidence supporting its use for most medical conditions & psychiatric conditions is mixed at best and indifferent at worst.
Come join Dr. Aaron Weiner for an updated overview about the therapeutic benefits, risks, and limits of cannabis & cannabinoid products. Along with the economic factors that influence the cannabis and cannabinoid market, and how behavioral health professionals can best work with clients struggling with cannabis use disorder.
Objectives:
- Identify at least three therapeutic applications for cannabinoids.
- Identify at least three risk factors of THC use
- Describe primary differences between THC, CBD, and other cannabinoids in terms of function and availability.
- Identify how to approach the treatment of cannabis use disorder from a biopsychosocial lens.
