Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

The wellness industry with Dr. Jonathan Stea
Q: What motivated you to write Mind the Science, Saving Your Mental Health from the Wellness Industry?
A sense of responsibility from ethical codes to correct misinformation and a recognition that misinformation in mental health is widespread and amplified by social media, prompting the author to translate expertise into accessible, evidence-based guidance.
A skeptic’s view of psychiatry: An interview with Dr. Joel Paris
Q: What is your view on the future of neuroscience and psychiatric treatment?
Progress will be slow and complex, involving multi-factor risk and resilience factors, with AI potentially helping to model the brain, but no single biomarker will suffice.
A skeptic’s view of psychiatry: An interview with Dr. Joel Paris
Q: Why do you think ADHD and trauma diagnoses have expanded so much, and are they overdiagnosed?
He argues that ADHD lacks a solid biomarker, the DSM criteria have broadened, and social factors plus placebo effects contribute to diagnostic inflation and treatment choices.
A skeptic’s view of psychiatry: An interview with Dr. Joel Paris
Q: Dr. Paris, what's changed the most in your thinking about psychiatry over the years?
He explains moving away from single-dominant paradigms toward a biopsychosocial approach, integrating psychotherapy and biology while acknowledging the field's gaps and overreliance on simplistic explanations.
