206: Dispelling Myths and Relationship Building with Psychiatrist Dr. Chelsea Neumann (Local Professional Series)

Dr. Chelsea Neumann joins Rachel and Steph to chat about her work as a psychiatrist. She talks about the difference between a psychiatrist and psychologist, what the relationship can be like with a psychiatrist, and how she supports the entire family system. She talks about the impact of COVID-19 and how it has led to some very common concerns and how ADHD is not a sign of stupidity. Dr. Neumann shares how she prioritizes her relationship with patients to support them where they are, how educating her patients is a critical component of her work, and what giving medications an honest try looks like. She also shares how going to a psychiatrist is not a parental failure and what she wishes kids understood.
