NICE TO MEET YOU
I'm Arwen Podesta MD
I’m Arwen Podesta MD—triple boarded in psychiatry, addiction medicine and forensic psychiatry, and a functional (or integrative) psychiatry specialist, and passionate advocate for whole-person healing.
I’ve spent over two decades working at the intersection of psychiatry, addiction medicine, and integrative care. Early in my career, I grew frustrated watching patients cycle in and out of treatment—despite doing everything “by the book.” I knew we needed more than just prescriptions and protocols.
So I started looking deeper. I studied trauma, brain chemistry, functional medicine, somatic therapies, and spiritual healing. And what I discovered changed everything: when we treat addiction as a complex, biopsychosocial-spiritual condition—we see real transformation.
Today, I teach clinicians around the world how to move beyond short-term fixes and into root-cause recovery. If you’re ready to truly support your patients while caring for yourself in the process, I created this course for you.

What’s the Cost of Doing Nothing?
You’re already working hard to help your patients—but without the right tools, even your best efforts can fall short.
Every day that passes without addressing the root causes of addiction is another day a patient risks relapse. Another day you carry the weight without enough support.
This course equips you with everything you need to make a greater impact—while protecting your own well-being.
Don’t wait until burnout hits. Don’t wait for another missed opportunity to help someone heal.
Your patients—and you—deserve better.
