Inside this resource
Mood, Anxiety, and Trauma Disorders
The psychiatry for primary care course begins with Isis Burgois-Chapman leading the depressive and bipolar disorder lectures, translating diagnostic criteria into frontline management strategies appropriate for general practice. Kristina Zdanys covers anxiety disorders and trauma-related conditions, emphasizing early identification and initial treatment steps.
Psychosis, Substance Use, and Neurocognitive Disorders
Mallika Lavakumar addresses schizophrenia spectrum presentations, while Louis Trevisan tackles substance-related and addictive disorders. Zdanys returns for neurocognitive disorders, connecting screening tools and referral pathways to primary care workflows where dementia evaluation often begins.
Geriatric and Consultation-Liaison Psychiatry
Rajesh Tampi teaches geriatric psychiatry, behavioral symptoms of dementia, and ethical issues in mental health care for older patients. Kirsten Wilkins covers consultation-liaison psychiatry, addressing how medical comorbidities and psychiatric symptoms interact in hospital settings.
Prescribing and Psychopharmacology
Phil Whang leads two practical sessions on prescribing antipsychotics and mood stabilizers, followed by antidepressants and anxiolytics. Raman Marwaha rounds out pharmacology coverage with sexual dysfunction and sleep-wake disorders, areas frequently encountered yet often undertreated in primary care.

Laura H. –
Wish I had found this during residency. The neurocognitive disorders lecture helped me build a systematic approach to evaluating memory complaints in my clinic. Fourteen hours is a manageable investment.
Sarah K. –
Exactly what I needed as a family medicine attending. The prescribing lectures on antidepressants and antipsychotics gave me confidence to initiate and titrate medications without always waiting for psychiatry referral.
Priya –
The consultation-liaison psychiatry lecture from Wilkins changed how I approach medically complex patients with psychiatric symptoms. Every session felt targeted to what I actually see in clinic.
M. Alvarez –
Well-structured course that respects the primary care workflow. Tampi’s geriatric sessions were outstanding. A few of the 2016 pharmacology references have since been updated but the clinical reasoning remains solid.
drtomh –
Good introductory resource but some sessions felt better suited to residents than experienced practitioners. The substance use and anxiety lectures were the strongest and most immediately applicable.
James L. –
Phil Whang’s prescribing sessions were practical and well paced. He walks through dosing, side effects, and monitoring in a way that translates directly to Monday morning patients. The PDF handouts were useful reference cards.
Robert K. –
Burgois-Chapman’s bipolar lecture was the clearest summary of late-onset bipolar presentations I have encountered. Would have liked more on pediatric psychiatry topics, though the adult content is thorough.
