On this episode of The Mental Society, I am joined by comedian and psychiatrist Dr. Neil Berliner.

Dr. Berliner is an American comedy writer, standup comedian, comedy producer, and instructor. Neil is one of the most requested joke-writing instructors in the United States. In 2022, Neil was named the first Comedy-Writer-in-Residence for The Comedy Cures Foundation.  Neil is also a practicing medical doctor and is the Medical Director of a large mental health agency in Brooklyn.

Listen in as Neil, and I talk about comedy, connection, community, and chairs. We, yet again, hear about how important connection, community, and collaboration lead to improved mental health and adherence to medical treatment plans.
