Rebranding Mental Health

Locked Away: What Psychiatric Hospitals Reveal About Our Mental Health System

Iman L. Khan, LMHC, LPC / Co-Host - Kurt Lois Season 2 Episode 20

What happens when crisis care becomes crisis creation?

 In this episode of Rebranding Mental Health, Iman and Kurt are pulling back the curtain on psychiatric hospitals: the good, the bad, and the deeply broken. This isn’t just about walls and restraints — it’s about a mental health system designed for containment, not compassion.

 You’ll hear:

  • Firsthand insight from a survivor
  •  A breakdown of why hospitalization is often the only option — and why it shouldn’t be
  •  What we need to build real safety nets for people in crisis
