HIV Prevention and Mental Health: A Person-Centered Approach to PrEP

Individuals navigating mental health challenges often face intersecting barriers to HIV prevention, yet sexual health is frequently overlooked in the psychiatric setting. This clinical gap leaves vulnerable individuals without essential protection, making it vital for mental health providers to bridge the gap by normalizing routine screening and pre-exposure prophylaxis (PrEP). In this interactive Patient Interaction Lab, you will evaluate realistic clinical scenarios between a psychiatrist and their client. The program addresses key communication and clinical challenges, including: Destigmatizing the Dialogue: Using person-centered communication to integrate sexual health into psychiatric care and normalize HIV testing. Individualizing Prevention: Differentiating between oral and long-acting PrEP to address specific barriers to care. Managing Clinical Transitions: Utilizing laboratory assessments to direct safe PrEP initiation and follow-up. Throughout the lab, expert commentary offers practical guidance on navigating these conversations effectively. You will learn to introduce PrEP options with sensitivity to psychiatric needs and build collaborative trust to ensure clients feel heard and empowered. Upon completion, you’ll receive a summary of best practices. Don’t miss the accompanying downloadable practical resources covering everything from client awareness to PrEP assessment and initiation.
