NexGen Therapy Medical Mimics
The NexGen Therapy Medical Mimics module provides specialized therapy skills training for clinicians who want to avoid diagnostic errors. You will work through clinical scenario training that presents patients with psychiatric symptoms caused by underlying medical conditions.
Our psychiatric simulation training lets you practice differentiating between primary mental illness and medical mimics. The therapy case management section covers referral pathways and interdisciplinary collaboration.
This mental health clinical training is essential for every therapist who wants to practice safely and effectively.
Therapists are not trained to identify medical conditions that mimic mental illness. Our medical mimics therapy module bridges this critical gap in clinical education. Using clinical therapy simulation, you will encounter patients with thyroid disorders, vitamin deficiencies, autoimmune conditions, and neurological diseases that present as depression or anxiety.
The psychiatric case simulation environment is risk free but highly realistic. This behavioral health simulation training ensures you never miss a treatable medical cause of psychiatric symptoms.
