This presentation, entitled “Recovering a Self in Psychosis,” is based on the findings of over 30 years of qualitative studies involving persons with serious mental illnesses who have described the rediscovery and reconstruction of a sense of the self as an effective social agent in the world as integral to their recovery from psychosis. This program of research has its foundation in the consistent finding of over a century of clinical observation, dating back to Kraepelin and Bleuler, that psychosis is marked by a pronounced loss of a sense of self as an agent.

The presentation will provide an introduction to the concept of epistemic trust and its recent application to developmental psychopathology.

Addiction to alcohol, tobacco, cocaine, benzodiazepines, cannabis, and opioids can be devastating, as we all know. But video games, online porn, internet gaming, internet gambling, and other technological addictions can be every bit as addictive as substances. These addictions can have real-world ramifications and lead to the loss of jobs, money, and loved ones. As technology becomes integrated into every facet of modern life, these technological addictions are becoming increasingly prevalent.

Aging is associated with a spectrum of cognitive changes ranging from normative mild alterations to clinically significant changes to debilitating impairments. Behavioral symptoms, too, are common and these can resemble non-cognitive mental health disorders. In this presentation, Dr. Ellison will review these cognitive syndromes, discuss assessment, and review decision-making and management issues relevant to the care of persons living with mild cognitive impairment and early dementia.

In the last two decades, psychedelics have re-emerged as promising novel agents for treatment of a broad range of mental health conditions including depression, PTSD, substance use disorders, end-of-life anxieties, eating disorders, and more. Our understanding of their putative mechanisms of action has significantly evolved as well. Several Phase II and III clinical trials of psychedelic-assisted therapy (PAT) using psilocybin and MDMA are either complete or nearing completion, with some of these therapies projected to receive FDA approval within the next couple of years.
