Presentation: My talk on Four Secrets of Mental Health Care uses patient stories, historical incidents and notable people, books and movies, and research findings to support each of the secrets, which I stress are hidden in plain sight. They are: 1) Behavior serves a purpose; 2) The power of attachment; 3) As a rule, less is more; and 4) Chronic stress is the enemy.
