Beyond the Pill Bottle to Relational Care: Insights from Dr. Warren Kinghorn
Join us as we delve into the complexities of mental health and the art of prescribing. In this episode, I sit down with respected psychiatrist and author Dr. Warren Kinghorn to explore the power of human connection in the healing process.
We'll discuss:
- The limitations of traditional psychiatry: Why a one-size-fits-all approach often falls short.
- The importance of relationship: How a strong doctor-patient relationship can enhance treatment outcomes.
- The role of medication: When and how medication should be used as part of a comprehensive treatment plan.
- The impact of social factors: How societal issues can influence mental health and treatment.
Whether you're a mental health professional, parent, loved one, or a patient, this episode offers valuable insights and challenges conventional thinking in our medicated-world.
