Diagnostic Considerations in Early Psychosis

June 27 @ 11:30 am - 1:00 pm

Massachusetts Psychosis Network for Early Treatment (MAPNET) Presents: In this presentation, we will explore diagnostic considerations in early psychosis, emphasizing the importance of applying a developmental and pediatric lens. This perspective is essential for accurately understanding the unique presentation of symptoms in adolescents and young adults and avoiding premature or inaccurate labeling. We will also highlight the critical role of differential diagnosis in providing thoughtful, individualized care—ensuring that diagnoses are not only accurate, but developmentally appropriate and responsive to the broader context of each young person’s life.
