You Aren't Stuck With The Brain You Have: A New Era in Psychiatry with Dr. Steven Storage of the Amen Clinics
Description
Can you imagine resolving mental health issues by scanning the brain rather than solely relying on medication and guesswork? Join us as we sit down with Dr. Steven Storage from the Amen Clinics to explore his revolutionary approach to psychiatry. Dr. Storage's journey through UCLA and Stanford, coupled with his work at Amen Clinics, has led him to challenge traditional psychiatric methods. He unveils the brain-health approach, where neuroimaging and personalized care take center stage over conventional symptom-based diagnoses.
Discover the fragmentation in psychiatric care and the promise of SPECT imaging in providing a more scientific and data-driven approach to mental health. Dr. Storridge shares compelling stories and case studies, including how visual evidence from brain scans can dramatically impact patient awareness and outcomes. We discuss the intricate relationship between brain chemistry and addiction, the long-term effects of psychiatric medications, and the critical need for reassessing medication dosages based on actual brain function.
We also explore the profound connection between nutrition and mental health and critique the traditional Western medical model's shortcomings. Dr. Storridge advocates for a holistic, preventative approach to mental wellness that includes diet, exercise, and sleep hygiene. Tune in to learn how embracing these practices can lead to significant improvements in conditions like ADHD, anxiety, and depression, and why it's essential to step outside conventional medical paradigms for better mental health.
