Mood disorders can be difficult to identify and treat in childhood, in part because the Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders (DSM) lacks diagnostic criteria specific to children for these illnesses.
But that doesn’t mean you have to be isolated in your clinical practice. With everything from CE learning opportunities to live clinical seminars to individual consultations, we’re here to help. Make CMHRC your partner on the road to a successful practice with children and families.
Get ready to learn! With customized CMHRC courses on the impact of mood disorders on children and families, such as our 2-Day Childhood Bipolar Conference which is approved through the Association of Social Work Boards (ASWB) and the National Board of Certified Counselors (NBCC). You can earn valuable CE credits while joining an interdisciplinary community of providers all working together to support families on their mental healthcare journeys.
Creating an account is free and you can then browse our growing selection of CE courses.
CMHRC’s Professional Diagnostic Consultation Service frees up your time while not compromising the quality of care and attention your clients deserve.
With Wayfinder for professionals CMHRC partners with you in tackling those tough cases while saving you time and energy. Our experts take an in-depth approach, using clinically proven assessments, interviews, and case review to help understand complex client presentation, unfamiliar diagnoses, and what the latest research can contribute to your treatment plans.
Learning in a community. Each month CMHRC hosts a free clinical seminar designed for mental and physical healthcare providers, educators, and others who work with children.
Filled with unbiased, research based information on everything from medications to therapies to key lifestyle interventions, the information will be essential to offering your clients and patients the best possible care. Attendance is free, CE credits are offered when possible for an additional fee.
Providers, are you tired of feeling as though you’re only hearing about what happened 15 minutes before your patients arrived at their appointment? Well, we have a simple solution, it’s called data tracking, and it’s easier than you think.
The CMHRC Toolkit app allows you to work in collaboration with your clients and patients to access objective information on symptom severity and frequency when they’re not in your office.
The Toolkit allows you to access your client’s data in real time so you can compare symptom presentation to baseline behaviors, assess if medications are impacting symptoms in the way they’re supposed to, and have objective information on how they’re managing at home.
Interdisciplinary Connection
Interdisciplinary connection improves the quality of care we give our clients. Benefits of connecting with peers can include everything from a simple increase in access to collaborative case review, to complex intellectual exercise as we learn from others and from their clinical experience. Also, it’s just nice to be able to put up your feet and talk to other professionals who understand the daily challenges that go along with providing excellent care to families.
