An Interview with Kathleen T. Brady, M.D., Ph.D
Description
Dr. Kathleen Brady is Director of the Clinical Neuroscience Division at the University of South Carolina Medical School and an expert on addiction and co-occurring psychiatric disorders. In this program, Dr. Brady discusses how underlying disorders like anxiety, depression, or trauma can lead to addiction or relapse, stressing the need to treat these mental disorders and addiction simultaneously. Dr. Brady also sheds light on the production of dopamine in the brain and dispels two harmful misconceptions-one, that an individual must actively want help in order to get treatment, and two, that an addict needs to reach rock-bottom before recovering.
