Episode 6 - Dr. Fred Moss - A Human-Centered Approach to Healing

In today's episode, I interview Dr. Fred Moss.

Dr. Fred Moss, a distinguished graduate of Northwestern University Medical School, stands as a stalwart figure in the field of psychiatry, boasting a career that spans nearly four decades. His journey, marked by an unwavering commitment to redefine the landscape of mental health, has led him to become a trailblazer in advocating for a more human-centered approach to healing.

In 2006, Dr. Fred pioneered a new methodology, working closely with a select group of patients who sought an alternative path to healing. Remarkably, these individuals not only improved but, in some cases, saw their diagnoses completely vanish. This success ignited a series of questions surrounding the very definitions of mental illness and mental health, laying the foundation for Dr. Fred's evolving methodology.

In today's episode we discuss addiction, ADHD, and parenting roles. We also dive into the use of pharmaceuticals in the treatment of what may seem to be behavioral irregularities.
