APBAM Conference

APBAM Conference Check out APBAM 2019: https://youtu.be/WfYEwZAoMfs See ya soon.

This is an unusual year, and yet we need to continue to build our skills and knowledge base to be able to help clients in need. This year, we will have a socially distanced online conference broken up into 4 bite-sized online forums to make them more easily processed. The first will be a Forum on "Tobacco Harm Reduction - Myths and Reality" on the 26th September 2020, with the next 4 being Forums

on Alcohol, Substance Use, and Sexual Compulsivity. In this Nicotine Forum, we examine the use of new ways to overcome nicotine dependence, including the use of e-cigarettes and, heat not burn technologies. Under the microscope will be various policies that different counties have taken in their approaches and their effects on reducing the harms caused by smoking. We have sourced for really good keynote and panel speakers, so do hope that you can join us on this learning journey.

As we bring APBAM 2026 to a close, we want to say one very important thing: thank you! 💜

Over the past two days, clinicians, researchers, practitioners and partners from across Asia Pacific came together to share expertise, exchange perspectives and build meaningful connections.

To our speakers, sponsors, partners and every delegate who joined us, thank you for making APBAM 2026 possible.

The conference may be over, but we hope the conversations continue beyond these two days.

Until we meet again in Singapore for the 10th edition of APBAM in 2028, keep the conversations going 💜

At APBAM 2026, Dr Munidasa Winslow reflected on an often overlooked part of recovery: human connection.

As mental healthcare evolves through digital therapy, AI and online communities, support may be more accessible than ever. But recovery goes beyond treatment and professional care.

It also takes empathy, compassion and support from families, friends and communities.

Our Guest-of-Honour at APBAM 2026, Mr Gregory Vijayendran, Chairman of the National Council of Social Service (NCSS), shared an important reminder: behavioural addiction rarely exists in isolation.

Behind it can be anxiety, trauma, social isolation, financial stress and relationship challenges. That is why recovery needs more than symptom management. It also needs connection, dignity, purpose and hope.

A timely reflection on how we can build a more connected and compassionate system of support.

When talking isn’t enough, can healing involve more than words?

For some, trauma can show up not only in what we remember, but in how we react, relate and respond. Approaches like psychodrama explore how action, movement and guided enactment can help people work through these experiences differently.

Hear from Sharmini Winslow at APBAM 2026 as she explores what can happen when therapy moves beyond talking.

Join us on 3–4 September 2026 at One Farrer Hotel, Singapore, and be part of the conversation.

Three days of learning, reflection and meaningful conversations 🧡

As we wrap up the Certified Clinical Trauma Specialist – Addiction (CCTS-A) Training, we would like to extend our heartfelt thanks to Dr Robert Rhoton for sharing his expertise, insights and guidance throughout the training.

Thank you as well to everyone who joined us over the past three days and contributed to the conversations along the way.

Here’s to taking these learnings beyond the training room and continuing to build more compassionate, trauma-informed approaches to care.
