- The private practice of psychiatry is in slow decline, and collaborative care will be its replacement. This is an inevitable result of the reality that there are too few psychiatrists being trained to cover the psychiatric needs of a growing population; increased rates of depression, anxiety, and substance use disorders across the population; and reduced stigma, which previously served as a…December 2021Mental/Behavioral Health, Health Reform
