In this presentation, Dr. Shari Corbitt discusses the rising cases of cannabis induced psychosis, especially among adolescents and young adults, and highlights the importance of recognizing early warning signs, understanding how high-potency THC products increase risk, and integrating trauma-informed care into assessment and treatment planning.
During this powerful discussion with fellow clinicians, Dr. Corbitt reinforced why they need to stay informed about how cannabis use can precipitate psychotic symptoms and the role of early intervention in improving patient outcomes.
By screening for cannabis use in clinical settings and discussing potential psychosis risk with patients, clinicians can empower individuals to make informed decisions and seek help early when symptoms arise.
