Over the last few years, I have had the honor and privilege of contributing to stories and podcasts on various mental health topics. Here are links to some of my appearances. I am incredibly appreciative of the coverage WCCO 4 TV, WCCO Radio, KSTP 5, KARE 11, FOX 9, MinnPost, and Hometown Source have given to mental health in our community. Stories like these increase awareness and reduce stigma on the topic of mental health. I would especially like to thank Erin Hassanzadeh and Jeff Wagner for their extensive reporting and incredibly thoughtful pieces about mental health news.
