Cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) is an effective treatment for depression that focuses on changing negative patterns of thought and behavior. At the core of CBT is the idea that a person's thoughts directly influence their mood and behavior, rather than external factors. The main goals of CBT are to help patients identify negative automatic thoughts, evaluate if they are valid, and replace them with more balanced perspectives. Therapists use techniques like cognitive restructuring and behavioral activation to help patients develop healthier thought patterns and engage in meaningful activities. CBT is a time-limited, goal-oriented approach involving active participation from patients.PTSD Presentation

2016 sowk ppt domestic violence group 2
Domestic violence involves physical, psychological, and sexual abuse in intimate relationships aimed at establishing control over the victim. It is not a single incident, but rather a pattern of behavior over time. Victims can be of any gender, age, social class, or occupation. Psychological abuse, such as threats and isolation, is often the most hurtful type. Domestic violence has serious short- and long-term health impacts for victims and their children. It is a major public safety issue that accounts for a large percentage of police calls. Addressing the underlying causes and helping victims escape the cycle of violence are crucial to reducing its harms.
Cognitive behavior therapy theory and practice
Cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) was developed in the 1960s by Aaron Beck based on his research challenging the psychoanalytic view of depression. Beck observed that depressed clients had negative biases in interpreting events that contributed to cognitive distortions. He developed CBT which focuses on identifying and modifying dysfunctional thoughts and beliefs. The key assumptions of CBT are that cognitions influence behaviors and emotions, and that maladaptive thinking can be identified and changed. Common techniques include cognitive restructuring to challenge irrational thoughts, behavioral experiments, and homework assignments.
Post traumatic stress disorder-ppt

Mental health at workplace and stress management.pdf
Workplace wellness starts with mental health. The document discusses mental health and stress management. It defines mental health as a state of well-being that allows people to cope with life's stresses and contribute to their community.

SOCIAL DIAGNOSIS IN MENTAL HEALTH AND ITS IMPORTANCE.pptx
Social diagnosis is an important part of mental health assessment and treatment planning. It involves understanding an individual's social situation, personality, environmental factors, and social determinants of mental health. A social diagnosis allows for a holistic view of a person within their cultural and social context. It helps professionals identify stressors, develop culturally sensitive care, implement early interventions, recognize social support systems, and create tailored treatment plans. A social diagnosis also informs advocacy and policy by emphasizing the broader societal influences on mental well-being.

Brain Injury and Mental Illness: Symptom Overlap
On June 28, 2016, Amy Daniel from Bridges: Northern Kentucky Brain Injury Support Group spoke about the relationship between Traumatic Brain Injury (TBI) and mental disorders. TBI can lead to mood, personality and behavioral changes. Individuals suffering from TBI are also at a higher risk of experiencing psychiatric problems such as depression and anxiety and are at a higher risk of inflicting acts of violence, abuse and neglect. Unfortunately, mental health intervention is often lacking in long-term treatment for TBI and vice versa.
To combat this problem, Bridges and NAMI NKY (National Alliance on Mental Illness) advocate an understanding that TBI is serious. Diagnosis and determination of medical treatment should include psychiatric evaluation. Follow through and follow up of treatment is also vital.

Good mental health is essential for overall well-being and quality of life, as it contributes to a positive outlook, resilience in the face of challenges, and the capacity to lead a fulfilling and productive life. It's important to recognize that mental health exists on a continuum, and individuals may experience fluctuations in their mental well-being throughout their lives. Promoting mental health involves fostering a supportive environment, reducing stigma, and ensuring access to appropriate care and resources for those who may be facing mental health challenges.
Health care encompasses a broad range of services and resources aimed at maintaining, restoring, or improving an individual's physical, mental, and emotional health. It includes preventive measures, diagnosis, treatment, and ongoing support to address various health concerns. Health care services are provided by a diverse group of professionals, including doctors, nurses, therapists, and counselors, who work together to promote well-being and address medical conditions.

Breast cancer: Post menopausal endocrine therapy
Breast cancer in postmenopausal women with hormone receptor-positive (HR+) status is a common and complex condition that necessitates a multifaceted approach to management. HR+ breast cancer means that the cancer cells grow in response to hormones such as estrogen and progesterone. This subtype is prevalent among postmenopausal women and typically exhibits a more indolent course compared to other forms of breast cancer, which allows for a variety of treatment options.
Diagnosis and Staging
The diagnosis of HR+ breast cancer begins with clinical evaluation, imaging, and biopsy. Imaging modalities such as mammography, ultrasound, and MRI help in assessing the extent of the disease. Histopathological examination and immunohistochemical staining of the biopsy sample confirm the diagnosis and hormone receptor status by identifying the presence of estrogen receptors (ER) and progesterone receptors (PR) on the tumor cells.
Staging involves determining the size of the tumor (T), the involvement of regional lymph nodes (N), and the presence of distant metastasis (M). The American Joint Committee on Cancer (AJCC) staging system is commonly used. Accurate staging is critical as it guides treatment decisions.
Treatment Options
Endocrine Therapy
Endocrine therapy is the cornerstone of treatment for HR+ breast cancer in postmenopausal women. The primary goal is to reduce the levels of estrogen or block its effects on cancer cells. Commonly used agents include:
Selective Estrogen Receptor Modulators (SERMs): Tamoxifen is a SERM that binds to estrogen receptors, blocking estrogen from stimulating breast cancer cells. It is effective but may have side effects such as increased risk of endometrial cancer and thromboembolic events.
Aromatase Inhibitors (AIs): These drugs, including anastrozole, letrozole, and exemestane, lower estrogen levels by inhibiting the aromatase enzyme, which converts androgens to estrogen in peripheral tissues. AIs are generally preferred in postmenopausal women due to their efficacy and safety profile compared to tamoxifen.
Selective Estrogen Receptor Downregulators (SERDs): Fulvestrant is a SERD that degrades estrogen receptors and is used in cases where resistance to other endocrine therapies develops.
Combination Therapies
Combining endocrine therapy with other treatments enhances efficacy. Examples include:
Endocrine Therapy with CDK4/6 Inhibitors: Palbociclib, ribociclib, and abemaciclib are CDK4/6 inhibitors that, when combined with endocrine therapy, significantly improve progression-free survival in advanced HR+ breast cancer.
Endocrine Therapy with mTOR Inhibitors: Everolimus, an mTOR inhibitor, can be added to endocrine therapy for patients who have developed resistance to aromatase inhibitors.
Chemotherapy
Chemotherapy is generally reserved for patients with high-risk features, such as large tumor size, high-grade histology, or extensive lymph node involvement. Regimens often include anthracyclines and taxanes.

- This slide appeals to my sense of humour and captures the wisdom inherent in feminism and other social justice movements, that our mental health and mental illness is strongly tied to the realities of our lives, and that our response is not necessarily a crazy response, but possibly a sane response to a crazy, untenable situation In keeping with this, Historically, much of the counselling work undertaken at WHS has revolved around women whose well-being has been adversely affected by violence and abuse, often in childhood. Our approach has emphasised the importance of the quality of the therapeutic relationship, a social view of health and mental health and an understanding of the effects of violence and abuse on women’s mental health and wellbeing, mental health service utilisation and the client-practitioner relationship. This framework provides many skills enabling the validation of women’s experience, of course you’d be dissociating, of course you’d be anxious having being through these things, anxiety, depression and complex trauma are common effects of having been subjected to violence and abuse, and sometimes this would be enough - but in my experience we didn’t always have the specialist tools and knowledge to support women to manage the actual disabling symptoms of anxiety or depression.
