Neurology Redefined: How Emotional Health Impacts Neurological Symptoms

The Healthy Mind Podcast with Dr Steven Resnick

In this episode of The Healthy Mind, host Dr. Steve Resnick explores how emotional health and neurological symptoms are deeply interconnected in the evolving practice of neurology. With over two decades of experience, Dr. Resnick shares how his approach to patient care has transformed post-COVID, moving from a purely symptom-based model to a more holistic, emotion-centered methodology. He explains that common neurological symptoms such as headaches, dizziness, and tremors often arise from deeper emotional and psychological issues, rather than purely anatomical causes.

Dr. Resnick highlights the importance of shifting away from the traditional “ill with a pill” mindset, advocating instead for a comprehensive understanding of the patient's emotional and psychological background. He emphasizes that effective treatment goes beyond medication, focusing on building trust, empathy, and deep listening to improve patient outcomes.
