In the midst of a mental health epidemic among college students, Doris Iarovici explains why this is happening now and what we can do about it.
In Coping on Campus, Doris Iarovici, MD, discusses students' lifestyle issues and psychiatric concerns using case vignettes to explore a variety of interventions related to substance abuse, relationship difficulties, eating disorders, sleep issues, depression and anxiety, and perfectionism. Included is a guide to making emergency assessments, from risk classification and hospitalization to public safety and communication within and outside the campus community. This revised and updated guide covers a multitude of changes across today's college campuses. Models of care have undergone dramatic shifts, including a pivot to telemedicine during the Covid-19 pandemic, new hybrid treatment models, app-based approaches, and stepped care models.
Doris Iarovici, MD, provides psychiatric care to college students at Harvard University's Counseling and Mental Health Service. She was previously a psychiatrist at Duke University, in private practice, and at a residential eating disorders treatment program. Her essays about college mental health have appeared in the New York Times, the Guardian, Psychiatric Times, and elsewhere.
