Psychiatry for Non-Psychiatrists
Friday, October 16, 2026
8:00 am - 4:15 pm
The robust demand for mental health services has grown steadily and outpaced the supply of psychiatrists. Non-psychiatric clinicians are increasingly filling that void and providing vital mental health care in many settings, including primary care clinics, hospitals, and community health centers. This conference will provide additional support to these clinicians so that they are better prepared to meet the mental health needs of their patient populations.
Topics include:
The conference will be held in person at DMU32 Health and Business Complex in Des Moines, IA and streamed live online via Zoom. Continuing education credit will be available. Learn more and register.
