Depression in the Digital Age: The Updated Landscape of Assessment & Treatment

4.9

Overview:

Depressive disorders stand as major contributors to the global burden of disease, yet progress in comprehending their origins and effective treatments has been limited. In this webinar, we aim to deepen your understanding of assessing and treating depression. This training will update your perspective on depression within today’s digital world, often a catalyst for the emotional and mental turmoil experienced by your clients. We’ll shed light on the complexities, comorbidities, causes, and treatments associated with contemporary depressive disorders.

In the last four decades, our comprehension of depression has undergone noteworthy transformations. Shifts in the gender dynamics of depression, investigations into the influence of social media on depressive experiences, and progress in effective treatments have characterized significant areas of development. This training aims to help you embrace a stepwise approach when engaging with depressed clients, underscoring a more systematic and personalized strategy to cater to the unique needs of each client.

Objectives:

  • Describe at least one notable shift in the understanding of depression over the last four decades, focusing on changes in gender dynamics, the influence of social media, and advancements in treatment.
  • Explain the global burden of depressive disorders, commenting on their origins
  • Describe current limitations in effective treatments.
  • Discuss the digital world as a potential catalyst for emotional and mental turmoil in clients experiencing depression.
  • Describe the complexities and comorbidities associated with contemporary depressive disorders.

Limitations:
This program presents current research and clinical frameworks related to depressive disorders; however, it does not offer exhaustive training in diagnostic assessment or provide certification in any specific treatment modality. The information should be integrated with clinical judgment, client context, and supervision where appropriate.
