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.

Dr. Kinghorn and Dr. Nussbaum's book is: 
Prescribing Together: A Relational Guide to Psychopharmacology
