Innovative Treatments for Mental Illness with Dr. Howard Weeks

I see psychiatry as entering a new renaissance of options for us being able to help provide the best treatments for patients.
Ever wondered about the cutting-edge treatments for mental illness? In this episode of 'Project Recovery', Dr. Matt Woolley sits down with Dr. Howard Weeks, MD, MBA, the Chief Medical Officer at Pathlight Mood and Anxiety. They dive into the evolving relationship between psychology and psychiatry in recovery. Dr. Weeks sheds light on how traditional medications have stagnated over the years and introduces us to the emerging role of ketamine in treating mental illnesses and pain. But that's not all.
The discussion also covers the use of Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation (TMS) and Electroconvulsive Therapy (ECT) in severe mental health cases. Dr. Weeks addresses common misconceptions and the stigma surrounding these treatments, making it a must-listen for anyone curious about modern mental health care. With insights from a leading expert, this episode offers a fresh perspective on effective recovery strategies.
