Luckily, there is an actual science to mental healthcare, and this week we sat down with an expert to break down every psychiatric definition, resource, and myth we could think of. Dr. Stephanie Hartselle, MD is a board-certified psychiatrist and clinical associate professor at the Warren Alpert Medical School at Brown University. Stay tuned, relax, and take a breather this week. You don't just need to hear this week's episode, you deserve it. Take care. If you or a loved one are struggling, there is help available.
