Show Notes Page: https://www.thehowofbusiness.com/611-duncan-gill-practice-owner/ How psychiatrist Dr. Duncan Gill transitioned from employee to entrepreneur and built a thriving behavioral health practice serving children, teens, and families. Many highly trained professionals discover that technical expertise alone is not enough to build a successful business. In this episode, Henry Lopez speaks with Dr. Duncan Gill, founder of Direction Behavioral Health, about his journey from practicing psychiatrist to entrepreneur and business owner. Duncan shares how frustration with bureaucracy and a desire to serve patients differently led him to launch his own behavioral health practice. They discuss the challenges of transitioning from clinician to business leader, including hiring and managing employees, navigating partnerships, delegating responsibility, monitoring key performance indicators, and building systems that allow the business to grow beyond the founder. Duncan also shares why creativity, adaptability, and a willingness to take calculated risks have been critical to his success. He reflects on the lessons he learned from building a team, expanding facilities, and creating a practice that serves children, teens, and families while providing him with the freedom to pursue other interests, including music. This conversation offers valuable insights not only for healthcare professionals but for any entrepreneur seeking to build a business that can grow beyond their direct involvement. Healthcare professionals should not underestimate their ability to become successful entrepreneurs.

He earned his Bachelor of Arts in Physical Sciences from Harvard University and his Doctor of Medicine degree from Saba University School of Medicine.

In this episode, Jo-Ann Berry (Special Educator) and Dr. Candida Fink (Child & Adolescent Psychiatrist) explore the science and clinical use of two prominent mental health treatments: SSRIs and Ketamine. They break down how these medications work, their common side effects, and the importance of professional medical supervision—especially for adolescents in a school setting.Key Points & TakeawaysSSRIs (Selective Serotonin Reuptake Inhibitors)Mechanism: SSRIs work in the synapses between brain cells, blocking the "vacuum cleaner" (transporter) that reabsorbs serotonin into the first cell, making more serotonin available for the receptors in the second cell.Not Instant: These medications are not a "quick fix." It can take several weeks to a few months to see their full effect.Gradual Dosing: Treatment typically begins with a low dose and is gradually increased, which adds to the time before benefits are felt.KetamineBackground: Originally approved as a general anesthetic and for pain management, it has been found effective for treatment-resistant depression in adults.Rapid Response: Unlike SSRIs, intravenous ketamine can produce a very rapid antidepressant response.Supervised Use: Ketamine and its nasal spray version, Esketamine, must be administered in specialized clinical settings where patients can be monitored for several hours.Practical Tips & Side EffectsCommon SSRI Side Effects: Early, temporary side effects can include nausea, diarrhea, headache, tiredness, or lightened sleep.The "Paradoxical Reaction": In young people, there is a small risk of feeling worse (increased anxiety or irritability) when starting SSRIs, which requires close monitoring.Patience and Communication: It is vital for patients and caregivers to maintain frequent communication with their prescribing doctor and inform school nurses of any new medication.Never Stop Suddenly: Patients should never stop taking SSRIs abruptly without medical supervision due to the risk of withdrawal.ResourcesWebsite: mentalhealthgoestoschool.comUpcoming Topic: Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation (TMS) as another intervention for treatment-resistant depression.AACAP (American Academy of Child and Adolescent Psychiatry) Medication GuidesStudy regarding ketamine treatment for depression in youth ages 18-25Connect With UsLike, Follow, and Review: Please interact with us on your favorite podcast platform or our website to suggest topics or ask questions.Timeline & Timestamps[00:00] – Introduction and the New York heatwave.[01:40] – Defining SSRIs and how they function in the brain's synapses.[04:15] – Why SSRIs take time to work and the importance of patient patience.[06:20] – Common and temporary side effects of starting SSRIs.[07:45] – More serious risks: Paradoxical reactions and suicidal ideation in young people.[12:35] – Addressing the stigma and misconceptions about mental health medication.[15:15] – Introduction to Ketamine: From anesthesia to treatment-resistant depression.[18:40] – The rapid effect of Ketamine vs. SSRIs.[21:10] – Side effects of Ketamine, including dissociation.[23:30] – The importance of school communication regarding student medication.[26:50] – Closing thoughts and teaser for a future episode on TMS.If you enjoy our content, please like and follow - and review if you can!

How to write a willWe all know it's something we should do — but it's easy to put off. For many adults, estate planning, especially writing a will, gets pushed down the to-do list for another month, another year or even another decade. In fact, many people don't begin the process until well into their 60s, sometimes after a major health scare or family change forces the conversation. But taking the time to get your affairs in order earlier can make a meaningful difference, according to experts. It gives you more control over your decisions, your assets and how you want to care for the people you love. And just as importantly, it can ease the emotional and financial burden often placed on families during an already difficult time. Wednesday on the "Sound of Ideas," a Northeast Ohio attorney explains what you need to know about creating a will, why it matters and how to get started. Guest:- Helen Rapp, Staff Attorney, Economic Justice Group, The Legal Aid Society of Cleveland Akron nonprofit organization engages students through sneaker cultureLater in the hour, a nonprofit organization in Akron is hoping to reach young people through sneaker culture — and the effort comes at a critical time. Last summer, a mass shooting at Mason Community Learning Center left more than a dozen young people injured. In response, Akron city leaders committed $100,000 to youth sports and wellness programs and reinvested in other crime-deterring efforts. But how can communities connect with kids before they reach a crisis point? The Akron Sneaker Academy says its working to address this by using shoes as a gateway to hands-on learning, mentorship and exposure to science and technology. Guests:- Dominique Waters, Founder & Executive Director, Akron Sneaker Academy- Michael Redovian, M.D., Child and Adolescent Psychiatrist, Akron Children's Hospital

ARE YOU READY TO TAKE THE COUCH? Hey-hey-hey! Tonight we are discussing a very heavy conversation - children/adolescents and depression and suicidal thinking. Join me on the couch with Dr. Juandalyn Peters, MD, Board Certified Adult and Child & Adolescent Psychiatrist. FROM THE AMERICAN ACADEMY OF CHILD & ADOLESCENT PSYCHIATRY: Suicides among young people continue to be a serious problem. Suicide is the second leading cause of death for children, adolescents, and young adults age 15-to-24-year-olds. The majority of children and adolescents who attempt suicide have a significant mental health disorder, usually depression. Among younger children, suicide attempts are often impulsive. They may be associated with feelings of sadness, confusion, anger, or problems with attention and hyperactivity. Among teenagers, suicide attempts may be associated with feelings of stress, self-doubt, pressure to succeed, financial uncertainty, disappointment, and loss. For some teens, suicide may appear to be a solution to their problems. Depression and suicidal feelings are treatable mental disorders. The child or adolescent needs to have his or her illness recognized and diagnosed, and appropriately treated with a comprehensive treatment plan. Thoughts about suicide and suicide attempts are often associated with depression. In addition to depression, other risk factors include: family history of suicide attempts exposure to violence impulsivity aggressive or disruptive behavior access to firearms bullying feelings of hopelessness or helplessness acute loss or rejection --- Support this podcast: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/brainlove/support

We are once again joined by our good friend Dr. Molly McVoy, M.D.. She is a Child and Adolescent Psychiatrist, as well as Training Director for the Child and Adolescent Psychiatry Fellowship at University Hospitals of Cleveland/Case Western Reserve in our home state ... Give me an O-H-I-O-!In episode 12, we did a broad overview of ADHD. We started with the hyperactive subtype. We ran out of time to delve into the the inattentive and combined subtype.Here, we review the definition and diagnosis of ADHD and then focus on the inattentive subtype, learning when and how these kids typically present to our attention. We discuss how gender may increase the likelihood of various subtypes and the importance of treatment of the whole person. We discuss the possibility of undiagnosed ADHD leading to other intrinsic and extrinsic behavior problems, thus reinforcing the importance of early diagnosis and treatment. So much of behavior intervention is recognizing our parental bias and instinct, cleaning our 'lense' when appropriate, and seeing our kids for who they are. Kids are not intrinsically bad or malicious. Beneath their sometimes troublesome and aggravating behavior is a child with a need and it is our job as parents and caregivers to uncover this root cause. 

Dr. Arjun Nanda is a husband and father and he is a Child and Adolescent Psychiatrist currently working at Monterey County Behavioral health, where he serves as Medical Team Lead of the Children's System of Care.

In this episode he shares insights on ADHD, parenting, and mental health. He emphasizes the importance of play and joy in father-child relationships and recommends books for dads. He also discusses the impact of discipline and the role of fathers in creating a safe and supportive environment for children.

In this episode of Real Talk with Kid Docs, we explore how to have the awkward and sometimes  difficult conversations with your children - you know, the ones about sex and drugs that we try to always push for another day. We are joined by Dr. Stan Brewer, D.O., a Child and Adolescent Psychiatrist to help guide us. We are reminded of the importance in developing an open and honest relationship with your kids to support these conversations and really all conversations at any age. A few tips: -Start earlier than you think.  You want them to hear it from you first. -Follow your kid's lead and engage in their curiosity to develop the conversation. For example, it is very natural for elementary age children to have questions about body parts. Use that to guide the conversation. -Use language and terms that are correct and appropriate. Stick with a level that fits their maturity level.It feels like the tween and teen years are new and unfamiliar territory. Remember, you have been parenting for a while now. Build on things you have already talked about in their younger years. You may be more prepared than you think!Where do I even start? Well, often, the first question kids ask that makes a parent squirm is, "Where do babies come from?" Dr. Brewer recommends the following book series to start the conversation off with young kids so you can build them later. These books are recommended for ages 4-8 years. It's So Amazing! A book about eggs, sperm, birth, babies and families It's Not the Stork: A book about girls, boys, babies, bodies, families and friends It's Perfectly Normal: Changing bodies, growing up, sex and sexual healthAll by Robie H.
