On this episode host Raj Sundar explores intersection of aging, mental health, and technology with Neelam, founder of Total Life, to explore how we can better support seniors through innovative care models and AI-powered tools. We hear how a personal family experience inspired Neelam to address the lack of mental health support in elder care, and learn about Total Life's approach to integrating therapy into seniors' primary care visits and reducing barriers to access, such as long wait times and lack of culturally competent providers. They discuss the stigma around therapy in older populations, the challenges and opportunities of providing virtual care, and how AI assistant “Lily” is being piloted to enhance adherence and engagement without replacing human clinicians.

Mental health is now central to high-quality cancer care, yet access, diagnostic precision, and scalability remain major gaps. In this in-depth discussion, clinical and innovation leaders explore how artificial intelligence can shift mental health care from reactive support to precision-driven, proactive intervention. The conversation examines AI as a clinical signal amplifier that enhances human judgment without replacing it. Topics include objective diagnostics, functional brain mapping, digital phenotyping, therapeutic bots, longitudinal monitoring, and how AI can better match patients to the right level of care at the right time. The discussion also addresses real-world implementation challenges in oncology and health systems, including workforce shortages, equity, and clinical oversight.

Physicians face higher rates of depression, anxiety, and suicide risk than the general population — yet fewer than one in three with a mental health condition ever receives care. In this episode, Dr. Jesse Ehrenfeld, professor of anesthesiology at the Medical College of Wisconsin and Global Chief Medical Officer for AIDOC, discusses what happens when physicians consider getting help. The conversation looks at how concerns about licensing, confidentiality, and other structural barriers can make seeking care feel risky, and why progress has been uneven.

Overview: We explore intersection of aging, mental health, and technology with Neelam, founder of Total Life, to explore how we can better support seniors through innovative care models and AI-powered tools. We hear how a personal family experience inspired Neelam to address the lack of mental health support in elder care, and learn about Total Life's approach to integrating therapy into seniors' primary care visits and reducing barriers to access, such as long wait times and lack of culturally competent providers. We discuss the stigma around therapy in older populations, the challenges and opportunities of providing virtual care, and how AI assistant “Lily” is being piloted to enhance adherence and engagement without replacing human clinicians. Three Takeaways: Mental Health in Elderly Care Is Critically UnderservedThrough a personal story about her mother's post-surgery depression during COVID, Neelam emphasizes that mental health for seniors is rarely integrated into discharge plans or standard care. She points out the shocking statistic that less than 6% of seniors get timely mental health interventions, underscoring a systemic issue in resource allocation. Cultural and Linguistic Barriers Compound Access IssuesThe episode tackles the unique cultural challenges seniors face in accessing therapy, especially when language and cultural concordance are needed. Neelam discusses their efforts to build a diverse roster of therapists, including different ages, religions, and languages—an element crucial for genuine engagement and effectiveness. AI's Role as a Clinical Ally, Not a ReplacementIntroducing “Lilly,” an AI-based care coordinator, Neelam makes it clear that while AI can enhance engagement and adherence in care plans, it is not meant to replace human clinicians. The episode explores how older adults are surprisingly receptive to technology when it's framed as helpful and personable, and how AI can fill gaps between therapy sessions.

This episode is an interview with Mike Meaney, CEO and founder of One Small Step that provides peer support to people with mental health and addiction crises. He discusses his own personal recovery journey that inspired him to become a certified peer.Most of us underestimate how critical peer support can be in mental health and addiction recovery- until we hear stories like Mike's, who turned his personal struggles into a groundbreaking platform that saves lives during nights and weekends when traditional help is scarce.In this powerful episode, Mike Meaney shares his deeply personal journey from blackout drinking at 16 to building a platform for certified peer support that's transforming mental health care. Dr. Kibby and Mike discuss how lived experience combined with innovative technology is closing gaps in access, especially when emergency services aren't the right answer. Failing to recognize the power of peer support leaves millions vulnerable in their darkest hours, missing out on an accessible, stigma-reducing lifeline. For anyone battling addiction, mental health challenges, or supporting someone who is, this episode reveals a hopeful path forward, grounded in authenticity and innovation.If you're tired of the same old approaches and want to see how empathy combined with tech can revolutionize mental health care, this conversation is essential listening. Mike Meaney is CEO of One Small Step, a platform dedicated to on-demand peer support supported by clinical supervision, revolutionizing how people access help in their most vulnerable moments.Resources:One Small Step website

Physicians face higher rates of depression, anxiety, and suicide risk than the general population, yet most never seek mental health care. In this episode, Dr. Jesse Ehrenfeld, professor of anesthesiology at the Medical College of Wisconsin and Global Chief Medical Officer for AIDOC, discusses new JAMA research examining why. The conversation looks at how medical culture, stigma, time constraints and concerns about confidentiality or professional consequences can keep physicians from getting help, even when effective treatment exists.

There are not enough therapists in America. And even when you can find one, it is hard to schedule an appointment. This is the case despite the fact that America also has a rising mental health crisis. More people are aware of their mental health needs, and more people are coming to need mental health support. At the Ruderman Family Foundation, this is one of our tentpole issues, and we strive to facilitate changes in our communities that will provide better and healthier futures for those struggling with mental health. That is why I'm so excited to be joined today by Phillip Schermer. Phillip is the founder of Project Healthy Minds,  a non-profit startup building the world's first digital mental health marketplace to democratize access to life-changing services, partnering with public figures to de-stigmatize mental health, and creating the first national standards for businesses to better support employee mental health. Phillip and Jay discuss AI in the therapy space, the social and economic barriers standing between people and quality mental health care, and the stunning power of celebrity honesty around mental health struggles.

Life is perpetually, endlessly filled with change: new jobs and new loves, unfamiliar places and faces. And entwined in that change is loss: loss of what was or is, or what could have been. Amid this shifting landscape, author Ann Tashi Slater has found power in embracing impermanence through the Tibetan Buddhist belief in the intermediate state of bardo. * In this episode, Ann is joined in an illuminating conversation with CIIS Professor in Transformative Inquiry Fernando Ona. Ann shares insights from her latest book, Traveling in Bardo, and examines bardo in relation to marriage, friendships, parents, children, work and creativity along with stories of her Tibetan ancestors and the Buddhist teachings on the fleeting nature of existence. * This episode was recorded during a live online event on September 18th, 2025.

How does breakthrough brain science become real treatment for patients? In this episode, we sit down with Dr. Daniela Tropea, Associate Professor of Molecular Psychiatry at Trinity College Dublin, to explore how cutting-edge neuroscience research is being translated into life-changing therapies for mental health and neurodevelopmental disorders. As the leader of Trinity's Translational Neuroscience Laboratory, Dr. Tropea has helped reshape our understanding of brain plasticity and growth factors — including her influential work on insulin-like growth factor 1 (IGF-1). Her research directly contributed to the development of Trofinetide, the first FDA-approved treatment for Rett Syndrome, and continues to inspire new therapeutic possibilities for conditions like Fragile X and Phelan-McDermid Syndrome. In this conversation, we dive into: ·       How fundamental neuroscience discoveries turn into real-world treatments. ·       The future of personalized medicine in mental health care. ·       Why mentorship, diversity in research, and public outreach matter for scientific progress. ·       How brain plasticity research could change the way we treat complex disorders. Dr. Tropea is also a celebrated educator and international collaborator, recognized for innovation in teaching and mentorship — and for making complex science accessible to broader communities.

This episode is for anyone who's ever felt like therapy wasn't made for them, couldn't find a therapist who actually got it, or hit too many walls trying to access mental health care.More info, resources & ways to connect - https://www.tacosfallapart.com/podcast-live-show/podcast-guests/gino-titus-lucianoGetting quality mental health care shouldn't depend on where you live or how much money you make. But it does. Licensed mental health counselor Gino Titus-Luciano joined me on Mental Health Monday to talk about what it takes to make therapy accessible to communities that get left behind.Gino's path into mental health work started with a college professor who made psychology come alive. He kept taking her classes because they were fun and somewhere along the way it clicked. This wasn't just interesting material. It was work that mattered. After undergrad he spent time in behavioral health and youth justice before getting his graduate degree at Northwestern. That's where he had a moment that shifted everything.He was joking with a friend about being "just a DEI student" when they stopped him cold. Why would you say that? Do you really believe you don't deserve to be there? The question stuck with him. He realized he'd internalized doubt about his own worth and that same doubt lives in so many people from marginalized communities. It became clear that fighting for equitable access to care wasn't just professional work. It was personal.Now as founder and CEO of Hokuwa Mental Health and Wellness Group, Gino provides culturally responsive therapy across Hawaii, Nevada and South Carolina. He also teaches future counselors at Northwestern and serves as president of the Hawaii Counselors Association. In that role he's pushing for real policy changes like the recent telehealth bill that allows audio-only sessions. It sounds small but for people in rural areas without reliable internet or those who can't travel, a phone call can be the difference between getting help and going without.The barriers to care are stacked high. Low-income communities often only have access to training clinics staffed by students. Insurance reimbursement rates are so low that many therapists won't accept Medicaid. The foundations of modern therapy come from a narrow perspective that doesn't always translate across cultures. Gino learned this firsthand teaching anger management in a prison where an inmate pointed out that expressing your feelings with words might work on the outside but inside it could get you hurt.Culturally responsive care means doing your homework. It means being honest when you don't know something about a client's background. It means recognizing that advice that makes perfect sense in one context can be completely wrong in another. A therapist telling a 19-year-old from a multi-generational Filipino household to set hard boundaries with their parents might be missing the entire cultural reality of filial piety and community values.Finding the right therapist is like finding the right shoe. You need the right fit for what you're doing. Some people could run a marathon in stilettos but most of us want something comfortable. It's okay to shop around. A bad first experience doesn't mean therapy doesn't work. It might just mean that particular therapist wasn't your person.States are starting to make real changes, and that gives Gino hope. Hawaii just opened up provisional licensing so new graduates can start practicing and billing insurance right away. More providers means more access and that matters for communities that have been underserved for too long. The work moves forward even when it feels like we're taking steps backward.

In this powerful and practical conversation, Registered Social Worker Erin Walsh unpacks how mental, emotional, and spiritual health are deeply interconnected — and why healing must involve all three.Erin shares her story of coming to faith at 16, her journey through her own mental health struggles, and how God led her into counseling and psychotherapy. She explains the autonomic nervous system in simple language, the importance of grounding, why community is essential for healing, and the role churches can play in supporting people well.In this episode:

In this timely interview, Virginia State Senator Creigh Deeds joins us for an in-depth conversation on Medicaid, mental health access, and the growing crisis of “ghost networks”—provider lists that appear robust on paper but leave individuals and families unable to find real, available care.This conversation goes beyond politics. It's about public safety, human dignity, and the urgent need to fix a system that too often fails people when they are most vulnerable. If you care about mental health access, transparency in healthcare, and practical solutions that save lives, this is an interview you won't want to miss.

Roughly two-thirds of teenagers are using AI chatbots, like ChatGPT, when they need someone to talk to. People are drawn to AI for mental health because it's free and accessible, but experts stress it does not replace the empathy found from real people.

The Clubhouse model is proving that community and purpose can transform lives for people with serious mental illness. In this episode, Josh Seidman, Chief External Impact Officer for Fountain House, explores how the organization pioneered the Clubhouse model, a psychosocial rehabilitation approach built on community, partnership, and purpose rather than clinical hierarchies. Since its start in 1948, the model has expanded to 380 Clubhouses in 33 countries, helping members rebuild their lives through work, education, and connection. Data show that Clubhouse members experience higher employment, better housing, and reduced loneliness, while the model lowers Medicaid costs by 21%, saving society over $11,000 per person each year. Seidman also highlights participatory research projects like Measures That Matter and the Fountain House United Research Network (FHURN), which empower members to shape meaningful metrics and improve quality outcomes. Tune in and learn how community-driven innovation and lived experience are reshaping the future of behavioral health care! Resources: Connect with and follow Josh Seidman on LinkedIn.

Today we will explore a balanced reflection on mental health care. A recent article asserts that "therapy is becoming a new religion" . The article rightly names real problems — pop-psychology, over-pathologizing, influencer authority, and self-centered uses of “healing” language—but these are distortions of therapy, not therapy itself. Good mental health care is relational, accountable, and growth-oriented; it ought not replace faith, meaning, or community, and responsible clinicians are often the first to critique these excesses. Join us as we process how to balance mental and spiritual health. *** Link to article: https://medium.com/@Abdulsalamabdul864/why-therapy-is-becoming-the-new-religion-and-thats-not-a-good-thing-1bea9794d715 *** Links: (1) Help make PSB better: become a Patron at www.patreon.com/PureandSimpleBible.

Building Self-Esteem as Mental Health Care: How Enrichly Is Reaching 200,000+ Students with Gamified Therapy Join us as we meet Margo Jordan, founder and CEO of Enrichly, who's flipping the script on childhood mental health. Instead of treating symptoms, she's building self-esteem from the inside out—reaching over 200,000 students through a gamified platform that kids actually want to use. From military service to brick-and-mortar learning centers to a digital therapeutic that's now partnering with major health systems, Margo shares why self-esteem is the missing piece in mental health care, how she's hiding vegetables in the candy, and what it takes to bridge the pediatric behavioral health gap when 70% of US counties don't have a single child therapist. This is healthcare innovation that's both clinically sound and genuinely fun. Find all of our network podcasts on your favorite podcast platforms and be sure to subscribe and like us.

Professor Nicholas Giordano sits down with Mary Theroux, editor of Beyond Homeless: Good Intentions, Bad Outcomes, Transformative Solutions, to expose why billions in government spending have failed to reduce homelessness and how Housing First policies often make the crisis worse. This episode breaks down the astronomical waste, the abysmal return on investment, and the rise of the homelessness industrial complex that thrives as conditions deteriorate. Mary explains why many nonprofits become corrupt when tied to endless government funding, why people sometimes die at higher rates in permanent supportive housing, and why purpose and agency matter far more than free housing. The conversation highlights successful, proven alternatives like Haven for Hope, the dangers of open-air drug markets, the collapse of mental health systems, and the urgent need for community involvement and real accountability. This is a must-listen episode for anyone who wants real solutions to one of America's most devastating problems. Episode Highlights Why massive government spending and Housing First policies have failed and can make homelessness worse How the homelessness industrial complex and corrupt nonprofits profit from crisis while outcomes decline Proven solutions like Haven for Hope and why purpose, accountability, and community involvement are essential to real recovery

In this episode, clinical psychologist Margaret Boucher has an illuminating conversation with NPR journalist Rhaina Cohen on the power of platonic partnerships and how the thrill, intimacy, and commitment we seek is often found through meaningful friendship. * Sharing insights from her years of original reporting and social science research, Rhaina argues that we undermine romantic relationships by expecting too much of them and diminish friendships by expecting too little of them. At a time when many Americans are spending large stretches of their lives single, widowed, divorced, or feeling the effects of the "loneliness epidemic," Rhaina challenges us to ask what we want from our relationships—not just what we're supposed to want—and helps us to examine how we define a fulfilling life. * This episode was recorded during a live online event on July 31st, 2025.

If You're a Pilot or ATC Struggling Right NowYou're not alone. This episode is for you. There are people fighting to make it safe to get help without sacrificing your identity and your career.“It's going to be faster and easier for us to change federal law than it is for a pilot to get certified with minor to moderate mental health issues.”In this powerful conversation, Ramos Law Director of Aviation Joseph LoRusso sits down with Chris Finlayson, United Airlines A320 pilot and Executive Director of the Pilot Mental Health Campaign (PMHC), to talk about one of aviation's biggest open secrets: pilots and air traffic controllers are afraid to seek mental health care.They break down:- Why so many pilots wait until they're in crisis before getting help- How FAA medical rules and the 8500 form create a “catch-22” that can turn honesty into a felony- The Mental Health and Aviation Act and Aviation Medication Transparency Act. What they actually do and why they matter- The shocking reality that it was faster to move a bill through the U.S. House than for one pilot to get FAA-certified on treatment- The human cost: long COVID, anxiety, depression, divorce, burnout, and crashes in an industry built on professionalism and safety- Why untreated mental health is a bigger safety risk than allowing pilots to proactively seek care- How pilots, ATC, and the FAA can move from fear and silence to partnership and transparency

Mental health issues like depression and anxiety are widespread across the globe. In the U.S. alone, nearly one in five adults is affected by mental illness each year Magnesium plays a central role in brain function, mood regulation, and stress response; deficiency is common and linked to anxiety, depression, poor sleep, and cognitive decline Vitamin D directly influences brain chemistry and inflammation, supports dopamine production, and is frequently low in individuals with mood disorders These two nutrients work synergistically. Magnesium activates vitamin D, while vitamin D enhances magnesium absorption; co-supplementation provides greater mental health benefits than either alone The best way to increase vitamin D is through regular midday sun exposure, while magnesium is increased through supplementation with well-absorbed forms like glycinate, malate, or L-threonate
