Some of the most meaningful moments at Elevate don’t happen on stage. They happen in between.

In the hallway conversations. In the shared smiles between sessions. In the connections that start small and grow into something lasting.

That’s the strength of this community, and why so many return year after year.

We’re looking forward to welcoming you back to Las Vegas this June to reconnect, build your network, and continue growing together.

Telepsychiatry is here to stay. But delivering high-quality virtual care requires more than logging on.

In this video, Edward Kaftarian, MD, breaks down what clinicians need to know about maintaining HIPAA compliance and protecting patient data in telehealth settings. From privacy safeguards to practical risk management considerations, this conversation highlights how to strengthen both security and patient trust in digital care.

As telepsychiatry becomes standard practice, compliance and clinical excellence must go hand in hand.

This topic also connects directly to Psych Congress Elevate 2026, including during the session, “Psychiatry Without Walls: How Telemedicine Is Reshaping Care” with Edward Kaftarian, MD, and Rebecca DePalma, DMSc, PA-C, where you’ll explore how to build rapport, conduct effective assessments, and deliver patient-centered care in virtual settings.

Are anticholinergics helping your patients with tardive dyskinesia - or making symptoms worse?

In this Q&A, Brooke Kempf, MSN, PMHNP-BC, and Jonathan Meyer, MD, unpack the neurobiology behind why anticholinergics fall short in TD and share practical, real-world deprescribing strategies grounded in clinical evidence and shared decision making.

Deprescribing is not simply stopping a medication. It requires the same precision, intention, and empathy as prescribing.

This conversation also connects directly to what we’re exploring at Psych Congress Elevate 2026, including during the session, “Deprescribing in Psychiatry: Tapering Antidepressants with Intention, Evidence, and Empathy” with Saundra Jain, MA, PsyD, LPC, and Bryan Shapiro, MD - where the science and relational side of medication reduction come together.
