About this listen
In this episode, Valeea Sutton, dually licensed Family and Psychiatric Nurse Practitioner; Tanesha Rivers (Licensed Clinical Mental Health Counselor Associate, and Licensed Clinical Addictions Specialist Associate) along with host Parker Tompkins (Licensed Clinical Social Worker and Licensed Clinical Addictions Specialalist Associate) come together for an honest, clinician-led conversation about mental health, psychotropic medications, and how the two intersect in real-world treatment.
The discussion explores how medications support brain functioning, when medication may be helpful, common misconceptions and stigma, and the importance of pairing medication with therapy and holistic care. The panel also breaks down how informed decision-making, collaboration with prescribers, and individualized treatment plans lead to better outcomes for clients.
