Are you worried about your teen’s anxiety, screen time, or emotional distance? You’re not alone. Get on Their Turf is the parenting podcast that helps you support your child’s mental health and build lasting connection.

Let’s raise kids who feel safe, seen, and heard—because connection changes everything.

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.
