Description

This workshop is available through this website only to VPA members.  It is presented by the Vermont Psychological Association as part of a coalition of over 35 state, provincial and territorial psychological associations.  If you are not a VPA member, you can check with your local association or a nearby state association to see if they are participating in this venture and register there.

Access to the webinar will be through a Zoom link sent to participants via email from the Hawaii Psychological Association.  

This workshop overviews the key diagnostic developments and departures of the DSM-5-TR in relation to its predecessor, the DSM-5.  Marquee diagnostic developments in the Text Revision include the return of Mood Disorders, the inclusion of ICD-10 codes for Suicidal Behavior and Nonsuicidal Self-Injury, and the addition of Prolonged Grief Disorder, among others. These inclusions are joined by diagnostic revisions or clarifications to dozens of additional disorders, in addition to more comprehensive attention to issues of race, equity, and discrimination.
