One in six American adults take psychiatric medication and yet, doctors are
only allotted twenty-minute appointments that are spaced out by months at a
time. This book starts at minute twenty-one and is filled with everything
you wish your doctor had time to explain about mental health. Nearly sixty
million American adults struggle with mental illness but half are not
receiving any treatment and only a quarter of them have access to
psychotherapy. With demand for treatment far outpacing supply, our current
mental health crisis requires a new approach that goes beyond the
limitations of the health care system.
Dr. Julia Krankl, a Harvard and UCLA-trained psychiatrist, trauma
resilience specialist and physician educator details her mental wellness
menu-fifteen practical ways to improve mental health that don’t involve
taking a pill or doing formal therapy. Readers of The 21st Minute will be
empowered to become the hero of their mental wellness journey using tools
that work. The 21st Minute bridges the gap between what doctors hurriedly
explain in twenty minutes and what we all need to thrive. For physicians and
therapists who practice holistic mental health care, The 21st Minute stands
as an evidence-based resource of alternatives and adjuncts to medication
management and psychotherapy.
The 21st Minute offers an accessible and transformative roadmap to optimal
mental wellness using modern medicine, evolutionary psychology and diverse
cultural perspectives. If you are ready for a new approach to achieve your
mental health goals on your terms-this is it.
