Mental Health Is Health: Therapists Explain Why The System Is Finally Catching Up

After decades in the field, these two veteran therapists have seen it all — the stigma, the broken insurance policies, and the slow grind toward change. But now, they say, something real is happening. Mental health is finally being recognized for what it is: essential care. And the system is starting to reflect that — from better insurance parity to easier access through virtual platforms.

In this episode, Dr. Patrick McGrath and Chris Novak pull back the curtain on the mental health industry. They talk about what’s finally working, what still needs to change, and why finding the right therapist matters more than ever.
