I sit down with Dr. David Rosmarin, an associate professor at Harvard Medical School and a pioneer bridging the worlds of spirituality and clinical psychology. We explore a powerful, yet often ignored, truth in mental health: that for many, emotional distress is a crisis of meaning and spirit. David shares the fascinating research from his work at McLean Hospital, and we tackle the tough questions—are we over-medicalizing normal human anxiety? Could connecting with our spiritual nature be a more effective path to healing? This is a crucial conversation about bringing the soul back into mental health care.00:00 Intro02:42 The Genesis of Spirituality05:12 How Do You Define Spirituality?10:32 The Chasm Between Patient Needs and Clinical Training12:08 Humanizing Care: From Medication to Meaning18:21 A Case Study: Crisis of Meaning20:37 The Four Steps to Face Anxiety28:41 Anxiety as an Existential Opportunity31:01 Spiritual Mentorship: Crisis and Healing Are One34:40 Are We Over-Pathologizing Normal Anxiety?37:17 The Benzodiazepine Crisis and Over-Medication41:21 How to Find Dr. Rosmarin's Work42:53 Conclusion Learn more about Dr. David Rosmarin:·&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;<a href="https://dhrosmarin.com/" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">dhrosmarin.com</a>·&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;<a href="https://spirit.mclean.harvard.edu/" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">spirit.mclean.harvard.edu</a>In The Space Between membership, you’ll get access to LIVE quarterly Ask Amy Anything meetings (not offered anywhere else!), discounts on courses, special giveaways, and a place to connect with Amy and other like-minded people.
