We recently asked our Chief Medical Officer, Howard Weeks, MD, MBA, DFAPA, DFAACAP, his “why” for working in the mental health field. “For me, it’s the patient interaction and the ability to not just look at someone’s lab and test results, but to also have a conversation with them and understand what is really going on.” Now, we'd love to learn about your “why” and invite you to our 16th annual Eating Recovery Conference on Eating Disorders and Pathlight Conference on Mental Health. We will discuss a variety of trending topics that will shape the future of therapy such as: - Radically open dialectical behavior therapy (RODBT) for anxiety - Cannabis and Mental Health - The impact of GLP1 messaging in the African-American community - Ethical treatment at higher levels of care - Exercise integration at all levels of care - And a lot more! Don't forget to share your “why” with us and secure your spot here: https://bit.ly/4cAiBvc #ContinuingEducation #ERCConference
