I’m excited to be part of IMMH 2026 in San Diego, October 8–11—especially because I’ll have the opportunity to contribute in several different ways: exhibit hall, moderating, and joining a panel on addiction.

IMMH brings together 2,000+ clinicians and researchers, 50+ expert speakers, 60+ hours of education, and up to 40 CE/CME credits across integrative mental health, functional psychiatry, trauma, metabolism, nutrition, psychedelics, brain health, and addiction.

I’m particularly looking forward to the conversations around rethinking addiction through a broader biological and whole-person lens—while staying grounded in clinical practice and the evidence.

It’s a great group of people doing interesting work, and I’m always thrilled to be part of the super important conversation.

SEE YOU THERE! https://lnkd.in/gYFwDibm

A recent report from the National Center for Health Statistics found many decreases in drug overdose deaths between 2022 and 2023, though certain subsections remained stable or increased year over year, according to the CDC and the National Vital Statistics System.
