Interviews and Appearances

Dr. Gold became a sought after trusted on-air mental health expert particularly when the populations she sees in her psychiatry clinic were disproportionately affected by the pandemic: college students and healthcare workers.

She has been featured on CBS, Good Morning America, MSNBC, Newsy, PBS NewsHour, NewsNation, ABC News, among others. She is also regularly asked to participate in panels, social media conversations, and other appearances, discussing mental health topics for a wider, younger audience. 

Dr. Gold is quickly available for news stories, including new mental health data or breaking celebrity self-disclosures or mental health stories. She is known for her honesty, introspection, and care as she discusses sensitive topics to an audience that needs to feel seen and understood, while receiving evidence-based information.

For a list of topics, from coping skills, to college students and healthcare workers, to workplace mental health, to guns and mental illness, and mental health and popular culture, see her about page, but feel free to reach out to Dr. Gold here, and if she cannot help, she is happy to point you towards a colleague that can.
