Positive Psychiatry - with Rakesh Jain, MD
Positive Psychiatry with Rakesh Jain, MD explores the science and practice of fostering mental wellness, resilience, and flourishing through the lens of psychiatry. Join me as I discuss articles and opinions from expert clinicians, researchers, and thought leaders as they discuss emerging strategies to enhance well-being, purpose, and strengths—not just reduce symptoms. From gratitude and optimism to meaning and connection, this podcast brings evidence-based insights into the heart of mental healthcare.
I am additionally a proud member of the Steering Committee of Psych Congress. This year's annual meeting is September 17-21 in San Diego, California.
