Get a practical framework for diagnosing and managing depression in outpatient care
This course is for clinicians who want a clearer way to diagnose depression accurately, choose first-line treatment more deliberately, and know what to do when the first medication is not enough.
- Distinguish depression from PDD, grief, burnout, and common medical or substance-related mimics
- Choose, titrate, switch, and augment antidepressants more intentionally
- Use the course alongside practical handouts, tools, and CME workflow
What this helps you decide in real practice
- When low mood reflects major depressive disorder versus persistent depressive disorder
- When grief, burnout, substances, medications, or medical illness better explain the picture
- How to use PHQ screening as a tool without letting it replace clinical judgment
- Which first-line antidepressant makes the most sense for a given patient
- What to do when there is no response after a real 6–10 week trial
- When to switch antidepressants versus augment with bupropion, mirtazapine, aripiprazole, lithium, T3, or modafinil
- When it is time to escalate toward psychotherapy, neuromodulation, ketamine, or psychiatric referral
