  • Psychiatry accessible to non-med student!

    I’m doing a master’s degree abroad in the UK and my major is purely within the faculty of arts. Yet I have discovered to my very surprise this fantastic podcast🫶🏻 The explanation is perfectly coherent and concise, with a deep concern of humanism.

    I experienced my first depressive episode at the age of 15, quite severe physically and mentally. Yet I didn’t have a single clue what was wrong with me. Later on I was even once tempted to choose psychiatry for university in high school before findi... more

Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

PsychEd Book Club 2: Healing with Dr. Thomas Insel
Q: What practical prevention strategies can clinicians realistically apply in day-to-day practice?
Focus on secondary and tertiary prevention, such as supporting families, leveraging early-intervention models like coordinated specialty care, and advocating for social and environmental supports that reduce relapse and disability.
PsychEd Book Club 2: Healing with Dr. Thomas Insel
Q: How can trainees implement measurement-based care while avoiding gaming scales or oversimplifying complex presentations?
Use a combination of subjective and objective measures, including voice and speech analytics and digital data, but ensure measures remain scalable and integrated via AI agents to reduce burden; the goal is to balance rich data with clinical relevance.
PsychEd Book Club 2: Healing with Dr. Thomas Insel
Q: Dr. Insel, can you give our listeners a brief introduction to the three P's and why they mattered enough to be part of your book?
The three P's—people, place, and purpose—collectively provide the social and environmental scaffolding needed for recovery, especially for those with serious mental illness who have been marginalized; without a supportive community, a nurturing environment, and a compelling purpose, medical interventions alone fall short.
PsychEd Episode 73: Psychiatry and Ethics in Ontario with Dr. Suze Berkhout
Q: What is a Form 1?
A Form 1 is an application for assessment under the Mental Health Act to determine if a person needs involuntary admission.
PsychEd Episode 73: Psychiatry and Ethics in Ontario with Dr. Suze Berkhout
Q: What is unique about the nature of psychiatry with respect to medical ethics?
Psychiatry can demand ethical standards that go beyond the standards of general medicine, due to the unique challenges and ethical dilemmas faced by psychiatrists.
