Description

It could be a loved one, a coworker, an acquaintance, or maybe even you. Whether directly or indirectly, we’re all touched by the behavioral health epidemic. Fortunately, new treatment approaches that decrease stigma, coupled with a growing realization that buildings themselves can be part of the healing process, are paving the way for what a new model of adult mental health treatment can look like.

On this episode, we speak with Dr. Mark Rapaport, CEO of the University of Utah Huntsman Mental Health Institute; and Rosalie Zoll, Director of Planning at Be Well OC. We’ll discuss the current behavioral health landscape for adults, the effect of the pandemic, promising new models of treatment and design principles for the next generation of healing, therapeutic facilities.
