Suicide prevention with Dr. Mark Sinyor
“You don't actually need billions of dollars to prevent suicide. You just need really good coordination.”
Suicide prevention has come a long way since the SAD PERSONS acronym many of us learned in medical school. As research continues to evolve, how can we keep up—and thoughtfully incorporate newer considerations like media influence, pesticide availability, and even artificial intelligence?
On th

A skeptic’s view of psychiatry: An interview with Dr. Joel Paris
“Over time, my perspective on psychiatry has changed in the direction of greater skepticism."
What happens to your perspective after five decades in psychiatry—treating tens of thousands of patients, leading major institutions, and authoring dozens of books and papers?
On this episode of Quick Takes, I find out as I sit down with Dr. Joel Paris, former editor-in-chief of the Canadian Journal of Ps

Building a better mental health care system
“Good systems just work. They don't need to be navigated.”On this episode of Quick Takes, I spoke with Dr. Paul Kurdyak about how mental health care differs from other areas of the health system—especially when it comes to access, quality of care, and the need for a more structured and accountable approach.Key takeaways from this episode:our mental health care system lacks coherence and accessther

The wellness industry with Dr. Jonathan Stea
“The beating heart of the wellness industry is pseudoscience.”With a few clicks of the mouse, our patients can read what we read – including the latest journals. But they also can access a world of half-truths, misleading claims, and falsehoods. On this episode of Quick Takes, I speak with Dr. Jonathan Stea, a University of Calgary psychologist and a bestselling author, about his research on the w

The semaglutide era? Considering medication-related weight gain
“Imagine a world where you have all the effects of antipsychotics, but none of the side effects.”Celebrities use them; politicians discuss them; our patients ask about them. Are semaglutide and sister drugs game changers for those with mental health problems who struggle with obesity? To explore the opportunities and challenges of these new medications, on this episode of Quick Takes, I speak with

An innovation in perinatal mental healthcare with Daisy Singla
“It’s one of the largest psychotherapy trials in the world.”When we hear “innovations in mental healthcare,” we tend to think about apps or wearables. In today’s episode of Quick Takes – part of our series on innovation – I speak with Daisy Singla, a senior scientist at CAMH and our first womenmind™ scientist. Singla talks about her recent study that expanded access to psychotherapy for perinatal

Yoga and practice with Dr. Vanika Chawla
“Does depression care include the downward dog?”Mindfulness, acupuncture, yoga. These were all once considered alternative treatments – favoured by some patients but lacking in evidence. Times have changed. Mindfulness, for instance, is a psychotherapy mentioned in the depression guidelines. What about yoga?In today’s Quick Takes episode, I speak with Dr. Vanika Chawla, a psychiatrist, a registere

Dr. Joss Reimer, CMA President, on living with depression
“We all need help sometimes.”As doctors, we often shy away from discussing our health, especially our mental health — even with our own physicians. That’s unfortunate as doctors have a higher suicide rate than the general population, yet fears of vulnerability, judgment, and stigma keep many of us silent. In this episode of Quick Takes, Dr. Gratzer sat down with Dr. Joss Reimer, president of the C

Exploring the future of education with Dr. Sanjeev Sockalingam
“It took a pandemic to get us to realise that we could do so much online.”When it comes to medical education, much has changed over the years—including its name. What was once known as Continuing Medical Education (CME) is now referred to as Continuing Professional Development (CPD). But the changes go far beyond a rebranding. After all, the sheer volume of journal articles available today is stag

Mentorship with Dr. Suzanne Koven
“What is a mentor? Four words. One big question.”What do you look for in a mentor? What qualities should you consider? And, more importantly, what exactly is a mentor?To help answer these questions and discuss the role mentors play in the careers of physicians Dr. David Gratzer is joined by Dr. Suzanne Koven, a Harvard-affiliated physician and Writer-in-Residence at Massachusetts General, whose ar
