This is a recording of a live conference that took place on 11 November 2025. This recording will be available to view until 4 September 2026.
We know that the prevalence of mental health problems has increased since the COVID-19 pandemic, whilst there is increasing pressure on services. Our experienced speakers will provide evidence-based information tailored to the needs of primary care clinicians. All our speakers will use cases to illustrate the range of mental health difficulties presented to primary care. We will consider depression, psychosis, eating disorders, and perinatal mental health difficulties. We will also discuss the role of primary care and the range of solutions beyond NHS Talking Therapies.
By the end of this event, you will be better equipped to identify and meet the mental health needs of your patients and manage the increasing demands on primary care services.
Topics include:
- Practitioner health: caring for yourself so you can care for your patients
- Managing people with eating disorders
- Perinatal psychosis
- Management of people with psychosis in primary care
- Trauma informed care (TIC) and people with complex emotional and relational needs (CERN); an introduction for GPs
- Management of people with anxiety and depression
- Management of people with obsessive-compulsive disorder (OCD)
