Nutritional Psychology: Bridging Brain, Body, and Behavior is a 2-hour online continuing education (CE/CEU) course that explores the relationship between food and mood, and how lifestyle factors influence mental health outcomes. Nutritional psychology is an emerging interdisciplinary field that examines the dynamic relationship between dietary patterns, nutrient status, and mental health outcomes. This course introduces the foundational principles of nutritional psychology, emphasizing the bidirectional relationship between nutrition, neurobiology, and psychological functioning. Historically, mental health care has focused primarily on psychotherapy and pharmacologic interventions; however, growing evidence demonstrates that diet quality, nutrient availability, gut microbiota, and metabolic health significantly influence mood regulation, cognitive function, and stress resilience. Key biological mechanisms underlying this relationship include neurotransmitter synthesis, immune signaling, endocrine regulation through the hypothalmic-pituitary-adrenal (HPA) axis, and communication along the microbiota-gut-brain axis. Current research highlights several nutritional factors associated with mental health outcomes, including whole-diet interventions such as Mediterranean-style dietary patterns, omega-3 fatty acids, micronutrient sufficiency, and the impact of ultra-processed food consumption. Additionally, hormonal balance, macronutrient distribution, and micronutrient cofactors play critical roles in the synthesis and regulation of neurotransmitters such as serotonin, dopamine, acetylcholine, glutamate, and gamma-aminobutyric acid (GABA). Chronic stress, inflammation, gut dysbiosis, and trauma-related dysregulation of the HPA axis further complicate the relationship between diet and psychological well-being. Through a biopsychosocial lens, this course also explores how lifestyle factors - including sleep, movement, hydration, and social connection - interact with nutrition to influence mental health outcomes. Clinical case studies illustrate how chronic trauma, dietary insufficiency, medication use, and physiological dysregulation converge to affect both psychological and physical health. Collectively, the evidence supports integrating nutritional assessment and intervention into mental health care as an adjunctive, individualized approach. Nutritional psychology therefore offers a promising framework for bridging brain, body, and behavior while expanding collaborative care models aimed at improving both mental and physical health outcomes.

Telehealth: Ethics and Best Practices is a 3-hour online continuing education (CE/CEU) course that examines ethical principles and best practices in remote online therapy. Telehealth, also known as teletherapy, telepractice, telepsychology, telerehabilitation (and a variety of other names), involves participating in therapeutic services through a digital platform. Patients can consult with their healthcare provider via computer, tablet, or smartphone without needing to visit their office. Telehealth is particularly beneficial for individuals in remote areas or those who have difficulty accessing traditional medical facilities. It encompasses a range of services, including virtual visits, health education, and remote patient monitoring. The primary and most obvious difference between telehealth and in-person treatment is the fact that the patient is not in the same room as the clinician. This lack of physical presence can limit the range of information available or how accurately it is observed. Communication can be influenced by camera angle, screen size, room characteristics, and other technical factors like bandwidth that may result in poor-quality video and/or audio and prohibit the observation of all behaviors. This course will provide an introduction to telehealth, discuss the pros and cons, address ethical considerations (such as competence, informed consent, HIPAA, etc.), how to get started with telehealth (including when to use, not use, or when to combine services), offer practice tips (including camera positioning and cultivating trust), and discuss evidence-based uses for mental health, nutrition, speech, and occupational therapy.

Psychedelic-assisted therapy is being studied for its potential benefits in supporting individuals at the end of life. Research indicates that psilocybin can reduce depression and anxiety in patients with life-threatening diagnoses, and ongoing work aims to integrate these therapies into palliative care. Beyond the clinical aspect, psychedelics encourage a deeper engagement with death, highlighting it as a universal experience that requires presence and compassion. In this course, we will focus on three specific substances, examining how they interact with the body and their potential benefits for hospice patients.

OHIO STATE UNIVERSITY, COLLEGE OF SOCIAL WORK

This training offers a view of healing justice practices as defined by Cara Page, "Healing justice...identifies how we can holistically respond to and intervene on generational trauma and violence, and to bring collective practices that can impact and transform the consequences of oppression on our bodies, hearts and minds" https://www.healingbychoicedetroit.com/what-is-healing-justice . This training promotes a healing justice framework for personal and collective transformative healing. While centering the needs of minoritized people, this training will seek to connect the dots between indigenous healing methods with the principles of restorative justice, and political action designed to disrupt and dismantle systems of oppression. Behavioral Health staff often work within a medical model system where the needs of the body are bifurcated from the needs of the mind and soul. Traditional mental health treatment has demonized, criminalized, and pathologized minoritized population' expressions of being that have been in conflict with majority perspectives of mental wellness. This training will support a wholistic view of mental health treatment that will challenge the status quo ways of working with and on behalf of client systems. Training participants will leave this training with a clearer understanding of the ways in which a healing justice approach can support wholistic healing while offering practical means of engaging whole heartedly in sustainable social justice work within the behavioral health context. Objectives: 1) Participants will be able to describe and share with others the concept of healing justice. (2) Participants will be able to evaluate the ways that traditional behavioral health treatment has oppressed minoritized client systems. (3) Participants will be able to analyze and synthesize strategies to center the needs of minoritized client systems within the behavioral health system that support service users in identifying and working to dismantle systems of oppression within that system. (4) Participants will be able to identify collective, indigenous, culturally informed practices that support wholistic health, healing, and the wellbeing of BIPOC and LGBTQIA+ service users and colleagues.
