GLP-1s in Addiction Recovery: Bridging Metabolic Science and Behavioral Healing

Session Description: This session explores the emerging role of GLP-1 receptor agonists in treating addictive behaviors - from binge eating to alcohol use disorder. We will examine how these medications influence reward pathways, reduce compulsive drive, and support recovery when integrated with psychological and relational care. Blending science, ethics, and clinical insight, this presentation opens the door for a nuanced discussion about healing, agency, and the future of metabolic psychiatry.
