We don’t need more treatment manuals—we need more musicians. In this episode, Dr. Graham Taylor is joined by Ross Ellenhorn, a pioneering voice in mental health and addiction recovery. As the founder and CEO of Ellenhorn—the nation's most comprehensive community integration program—Ross has spent his career helping individuals heal and thrive within their lives, not away from them. With a joint PhD in Social Welfare Policy and Sociology from Brandeis University, he’s a sought-after speaker, consultant, and advocate for reshaping behavioral health care. Ross’s work defies traditional paradigms, elevating collaboration, creativity, and authentic human connection as the true drivers of healing. Together, we explore the art of psychotherapy as an improvisational practice—fluid, relational, and deeply human. It’s a conversation about reframing resistance, restoring hope, and making space for people to recover in ways that honor their lived experience.
