In this episode, we are joined by Dr. Matt Bernstein, MD, Chief Medical Officer at Ellenhorn and Chief Executive Officer of Accord. A highly respected clinical psychiatrist and leading voice in the emerging field of metabolic psychiatry, Dr. Bernstein draws on more than 25 years of experience helping individuals achieve meaningful mental health improvement and long-term functional recovery.
Throughout his career, Dr. Bernstein has explored the connection between metabolism and mental health, first through private practice and later through his work at Ellenhorn. More recently, he developed Accord’s comprehensive treatment model and has become a prominent advocate for metabolic psychiatry through podcasts, national conferences, and briefings for members of Congress.
This conversation dives into:
What metabolic psychiatry is and how it differs from traditional psychiatric care.
The relationship between brain metabolism and mental health disorders.
How ketogenic therapies are being explored as potential tools for psychiatric recovery.
The role of metabolic health in conditions such as depression, bipolar disorder, schizophrenia, anxiety, OCD, and psychosis.
Dr. Bernstein graduated summa cum laude from Columbia University with a degree in English Literature and earned his medical degree from the Perelman School of Medicine at the University of Pennsylvania. He completed his psychiatric training at MGH/McLean, where he served as Chief Resident and later held leadership positions, including Psychiatrist-in-Charge and Assistant Medical Director of the Schizophrenia and Bipolar Inpatient Program. He also serves on several advisory and nonprofit boards, including Metabolic Mind, Meru Health, The Metabolic Revolution, and the Coalition for Metabolic Health.
