About Daniel Amen
Daniel G. Amen is an American psychiatrist, brain disorder specialist, and founder of Amen Clinics, which operates one of the largest psychiatric clinic networks in the United States. He is a double board-certified psychiatrist and clinical neuroscientist who has built his practice around brain SPECT imaging to diagnose and treat mental health conditions.

Brain health is the foundation of all mental and physical wellbeing, and by understanding and caring for your brain, you can change your life, mood, and behavior. He emphasizes that mental illness is really a brain health issue, not a character flaw.
"Your brain is involved in everything you do and everything you are, including how you think, how you feel, how you act, and how well you get along with other people."
"When your brain works right, you work right. And when your brain is troubled, you are much more likely to have trouble in your life."
