S1, E6: Game On! How E-Gaming Provides a Mental Release

from Live Well and Thrive

Welcome to “Live Well and Thrive,” a podcast recognizing the hard work, dedication, and diversity of our team at Kaiser Permanente Northern California. In this episode, we’re joined by: Gino Mortillaro, MD, youth mental health clinician from KP SCAL, lead clinician advisor for the Presence of Mind initiative and an active e-gamer. "I actually encourage people, you know, if you're angry, don't punch a wall because it punches back. Why don't we get like a punching bag, but this is the same thing? Don't take it out on other people. But if that cathartic release in that video game helps you out, great." - Dr. Mortillaro Share your thoughts, ask a question, or suggest a podcast topic, in writing or in a short audio clip.
