Mental Disorder and Violence Risk
Presented by Stephen D. Hart, PhD
This self-paced training program on Mental Disorder and Violence Risk is presented by Stephen D. Hart.
There is, by now, no doubt that mental disorder is associated with increased risk for violence, but that association is by no means clear or simple. Dr. Hart will review the research and clinical literature to identify and explain the mental health problems most relevant to violence, focusing on psychosis, personality disorder, paraphilic disorder, and substance use. He will also discuss how best to incorporate mental health problems in the practice of violence risk assessment and management, including formulation (case conceptualization) of violence risk and the development of case management plans.
Upon completion of this course you will be able to:
Describe the complexity of the association between mental disorder and violence risk
Describe the mental health problems most relevant to violence risk
Describe how to incorporate mental health problems into risk formulation
Describe how to incorporate mental health problems into scenario planning
Describe how to incorporate mental health problems into case management plans
