Sessions & Tracks

Track 1: Addiction psychiatry

Addiction psychiatry is a specialized field dedicated to the diagnosis, treatment, and prevention of substance use disorders and behavioral addictions. This subspecialty combines insights from psychiatry, psychology, and pharmacology to address the intricate relationship between mental health and addiction. Professionals in this field are skilled in managing concurrent psychiatric conditions, such as depression, anxiety, and bipolar disorder, which frequently occur alongside addiction. The goal is to provide comprehensive care that addresses both the addiction and its associated mental health issues.

Track 2: Mental Health

Mental health involves our emotional, psychological, and social well-being, influencing how we think, feel, and behave. It plays a crucial role in how we handle stress, interact with others, and make decisions. It is crucial at every stage of life, from childhood through adulthood. Good mental health allows individuals to cope with stress, relate to others, and make healthy choices. Conversely, poor mental health can lead to disorders such as depression, anxiety, and schizophrenia, significantly impacting one's daily life and overall well-being. Promoting mental health involves prevention, early diagnosis, and effective treatment, as well as reducing stigma and increasing access to mental health care services.

Track 03: Depression and anxiety disorders

Depression and anxiety disorders are common mental health conditions that significantly impact an individual's daily life and well-being. Depression is characterized by persistent sadness, loss of interest or pleasure in activities, changes in appetite or sleep patterns, and feelings of worthlessness or guilt. Anxiety disorders involve excessive worry, fear, or panic, often accompanied by physical symptoms like increased heart rate, sweating, and trembling. Both conditions can occur together, exacerbating each other's symptoms. Effective treatment typically includes a combination of psychotherapy, medication, and lifestyle changes, aiming to alleviate symptoms and improve overall functioning.

Track 04: Sleep disorders

Sleep disorders include conditions that disturb regular sleep patterns, such as insomnia, sleep apnea, and restless legs syndrome. They can lead to difficulties in falling or staying asleep, and poor quality of rest. These disruptions can negatively affect daytime functioning, mood, and overall health. Diagnosis often involves sleep studies and assessments, while treatment may include lifestyle changes, therapy, and medication. Effective management is crucial for restoring healthy sleep and overall well-being.

Track 05: Addiction rehabilitation and recovery

Addiction rehabilitation and recovery involve thorough programs designed to assist individuals in overcoming substance use disorders. These programs typically include detoxification, therapeutic interventions, and support services to facilitate long-term recovery. These programs often start with medical detoxification to manage withdrawal symptoms, followed by various therapies such as cognitive-behavioral therapy (CBT), counseling, and support groups. The focus is on addressing the underlying causes of addiction, promoting behavioral change, and providing coping strategies for maintaining long-term sobriety.

Track 06: Alcoholism and drug addiction

Alcoholism and drug addiction are chronic diseases characterized by the compulsive use of substances despite harmful consequences. These addictions disrupt brain function, leading to changes in behavior, judgment, and emotional regulation. Long-term substance abuse can cause serious health issues, including liver disease, heart problems, and mental health disorders. Treatment often involves a combination of detoxification, counseling, therapy, and support groups to help individuals achieve and maintain sobriety. Recovery is a lifelong process that focuses on managing cravings, avoiding triggers, and improving overall well-being.

Track 07: Addiction among youth

Addiction among youth is a growing concern, with young people increasingly exposed to substances like alcohol, drugs, and nicotine. Early substance use can interfere with brain development, leading to long-term cognitive and emotional issues. Factors such as peer pressure, stress, and family environment often contribute to youth addiction. Addressing this issue requires comprehensive prevention and intervention strategies, including education, counseling, and support services. Early intervention is crucial to prevent the progression of addiction and to promote healthy development and well-being.

Track 08: Behavioral addictions

Behavioral addictions involve compulsive engagement in activities that provide pleasure or relief, similar to substance use disorders. Common examples include gambling, internet use, and shopping. These behaviors can interfere with daily functioning and relationships, leading to significant personal and social issues. Treatment often includes therapy, such as cognitive-behavioral therapy (CBT), to address underlying psychological factors and develop healthier coping strategies. Recognizing and managing behavioral addictions is crucial for improving overall well-being and quality of life.

Track 09: Neuropsychiatry

Neuropsychiatry is a medical field that explores the intersection of neurological and psychiatric conditions, focusing on how brain disorders affect behavior and mental health. It addresses conditions like schizophrenia, bipolar disorder, and cognitive impairments linked to neurological diseases. Neuropsychiatrists utilize a multidisciplinary approach, combining neurological and psychiatric expertise to diagnose and treat complex disorders. The goal is to understand and manage how neurological abnormalities impact mental functions and to provide comprehensive care for optimal patient outcomes.

Track 10: Personality disorders

Personality disorders are a group of mental health conditions characterized by persistent, maladaptive patterns of thought, behavior, and interpersonal relationships. These patterns often deviate significantly from cultural expectations and can lead to distress or impairment in various aspects of life. Common personality disorders include borderline, narcissistic, and antisocial personality disorders. Treatment typically involves psychotherapy, such as cognitive-behavioral therapy, to help individuals understand and modify their patterns of behavior and improve their functioning. Early diagnosis and intervention are crucial for effective management and improving quality of life.

Track 11: Suicide and self-harm

Suicide and self-harm are serious mental health issues involving intentional actions that cause harm to oneself. Suicide refers to the deliberate act of ending one’s own life, often driven by overwhelming emotional pain or mental illness. Self-harm involves intentionally inflicting injury on oneself, usually as a way to cope with distress or express emotional suffering. Both require urgent intervention and support, including counseling, therapy, and medical care, to address underlying issues and prevent further harm. Promoting mental health awareness and providing effective treatment are crucial for reducing the risk and supporting recovery.

Track 12: Schizophrenia

Schizophrenia is a chronic and severe mental disorder characterized by disruptions in thought processes, perceptions, and emotional responsiveness. Individuals with schizophrenia may experience symptoms such as hallucinations, delusions, disorganized thinking, and impaired functioning. It often affects daily life and social relationships, requiring a comprehensive treatment approach that includes antipsychotic medications and psychotherapy. Early diagnosis and ongoing management are essential for improving outcomes and helping individuals lead productive lives.

Track 14: Geriatric psychiatry

Geriatric psychiatry is a specialized field focusing on the mental health of older adults, addressing conditions such as dementia, depression, and anxiety. It involves understanding how aging affects mental health and tailoring treatments to the unique needs of elderly patients. This field emphasizes the importance of managing cognitive decline, emotional well-being, and quality of life. Treatment often includes a combination of medication, psychotherapy, and support for caregivers, aiming to improve overall mental health and functionality in the elderly population.

Track 15: Neuroscience and Cognitive Psychology

Neuroscience and cognitive psychology are interrelated fields that explore the brain's role in mental processes and behavior. Neuroscience focuses on the structure and function of the nervous system, including how brain activity underlies cognitive functions. Cognitive psychology examines mental processes such as perception, memory, and problem-solving, seeking to understand how these processes influence behavior. Together, these disciplines offer insights into how brain mechanisms support cognitive functions and how disruptions in these processes can impact mental health and behavior.

Track 16: Bipolar disorder

Bipolar disorder is a mental health disorder defined by severe mood variations, which include alternating episodes of heightened mood or irritability (mania or hypomania) and periods of profound depression. Individuals may experience elevated or irritable moods, increased energy, and impulsive behavior during manic phases, while depressive episodes involve persistent sadness, low energy, and loss of interest in activities. Managing bipolar disorder typically involves a combination of mood-stabilizing medications and psychotherapy. Early diagnosis and continuous treatment are crucial for stabilizing mood and improving overall quality of life.

Market Analysis

In 2021, the U.S. addiction psychiatry clinic market was valued at USD 23.9 billion and is projected to grow at a CAGR of 4.1% from 2022 to 2030. This growth is driven by the increasing prevalence of mental health disorders, favourable insurance coverage, and heightened demand for mental health services. The COVID-19 pandemic has exacerbated anxiety levels nationwide, with a National Mental Health Crisis survey by The Harris Poll for the APA revealing that 78% of respondents consider the pandemic a major stress source, and 60% feel overwhelmed by current issues. The American Medical Association reported in April 2021 that 13.6% of Americans showed signs of severe psychological distress, up from 3.9% in 2018. Medicare's substantial coverage for mental health treatment has also enhanced the affordability and accessibility of psychiatric services.

Social stigma surrounding mental health treatment in the U.S. is hindering market adoption, even among the educated upper class, who often avoid treatment due to societal perceptions. High psychiatric treatment costs remain unaffordable for many, despite Medicare and commercial insurance coverage. Private insurance typically reimburses psychiatrists 10-15% less than Medicare, leading many to avoid these patients. The uninsured population, which has grown since the COVID-19 pandemic, faces the greatest difficulty affording treatment. Despite these challenges, the increasing prevalence of mental health disorders, affecting around 51 million U.S. adults according to the National Institute of Mental Health, is driving demand for mental health services. This demand surge is also supported by improved health reimbursement policies.

According to the CDC, there were 56.8 million physician office visits in the U.S. for mental and neurodevelopmental disorders. The National Institute of Mental Health (NIMH) reported that in 2019, out of the 51.5 million adults in the U.S. with any mental illness (AMI), approximately 23.0 million (44.8%) received mental health services in the previous year.
