Start NowPsychiatric disorders affect an individual's thinking, mood, and behavior. They can be caused by a variety of factors, including genetics, environmental factors, life events, and brain chemistry.
It is essential for community-based nurse practitioners to have a strong understanding of psychiatric disorders and their associated symptoms, as well as the available treatment options and best practices for managing these conditions. This knowledge enables them to provide effective care and support to patients, improving their overall quality of life and helping them to achieve better health outcomes.
Dr. Helen M. Farrell is a board-certified psychiatrist and works in private practice in Boston MA. She obtained her MD from Trinity College Dublin, Ireland in 2006. Dr. Farrell served on the Harvard Medical School faculty for over a decade, during which time she was an award-winning lecturer.

Did not like the presentation Difficult to understand and not good teacher
the topic is very well structured I must say. Great lecturer!
The subjects are clearly and concisely presented. Can’t be better
I learnt a lot in a little time. I’m loving the delivery Style of the Presenter / Instructor so much.
Dr Farrel presents the course perfectly. It’s precise and concise. Every essentials is inside. I would definitely recommend the lecture To my son who is in med school.
Although the instructor is knowledgeable, the lecture is boring that I am not able to comprehend completely.
An excellent lectures Will organize I highly recommend to others ,I recommend other to take this course
Todo muy preciso, deja en claro los tipos, fue una muy buena introducción
Straightforward and covers all bases without reading off the slides too much.
The lectures are simple, short videos that doesn't take much time, and I like the articles that come with it
I gave this rating due to the fact that the lecturer reads from the slides and often gets sidetracked from actually explaining the material. This gives the impression that there is a very poor understanding of the material being taught as it simply does not flow naturally. The slides are somewhat descriptive and that makes this series passable.
Nurain Love the clear explanation. The speed is also nice and I was able to follow it. The visual aids really help as well.
VERY GOOD EFFORT,NOT TOO FAST NEITHER TOO SLOW.JUST ONE RECOMMENDATION IF POSSIBLE DO GIVE THE REASONS OF QUIZ AFTER ANSWERING THAT WHY THIS ANSWER IS CORRECT WITH THE REFERENCE OF RELEVANT SOURCE.
It was a very good explanation I found this useful thank you
Short and concise lecture. It helped to review the topics.
This video provides a wonderful breakdown of the pros and cons of different treatment options, I especially enjoyed the explanation of different types of benzos. Thank you!
Awsome teaching! Will highly recommend. Astonishing effort of the Lecturio team.
Excelente introducción. Deja muy claro que es un trastorno afectivo bipolar. Felicitaciones
Excellent course. I like the subject covered. Concise, and to the point. I would definitely recommend this course to my colleagues.
Dr. Helen Farrell did an incredible job at explaining the different parts of forensic psychiatry. It was easy to understand and easy to memorise for the upcoming quizzes and tests. Speaking of, the small quizzes at the end of each lecture really helped me understand what I knew and what I didn't.
muy claro los temas , lo recomiendo para los estudiantes de medicina que quieren repasar la hc
This was a good lecture. I am trying to take all of the Free Classes offered by Lecturio, so as to improve my own health. I appreciate this lecture, because it is offered by an instructor who has a real medical background. It is very easy to follow Dr. Helen Farrell's line of reasoning. The main points are also fairly easy for me to follow on the screen, because you provide these lecture notes to the student. The quiz helps me to see how well I grasp the information you explain in the lecture. Thank you so much for this offer.
