Dr. Amanda Porter offers Understanding, Coping Skills and Support to Anxiety Sufferers in Dear Anxiety, Let’s Break Up

MASON, Ohio – Lindner Center of HOPE, a leading provider of mental health care, is pleased to announce that Amanda Porter, PhD, APRN, PMHNP-BC, Lindner Center of HOPE Psychiatric Nurse Practitioner, has released a book about anxiety.

Anxiety is the most common mental illness diagnosis, and those who suffer from it often feel overwhelmed, out of control, ashamed, lonely, and spiritually defeated. The truth is that anxiety is an emotion that can serve as a life-saving tool, offering instinctual responses to danger.

Dr. Porter, a psychiatric nurse practitioner with triple-board certifications in internal medicine, psychiatry/mental health, and addiction openly shares that she, too, is one of the 40 million adults in the U.S. who struggles with anxiety.

In her new book, Dear Anxiety, Let’s Break Up (BroadStreet® Publishing), Dr. Porter offers education, encouragement, and spiritual counsel to those who battle anxiety. We cannot always control our circumstances or our futures, but Dr. Porter assures readers that feelings of anxiety can be managed through our thoughts, behaviors, and actions.

In Dear Anxiety, Let’s Break Up, Dr. Porter offers scientifically supported coping strategies, spiritual guidance, and refreshing encouragement to help readers discover personal freedom. Topics include:

  • Gratitude: Practicing gratitude will soothe anxiety and redirect our thoughts to positivity and God. We can learn to manage feelings of worry and sadness with reminders of progress and gratefulness.
  • Mindfulness: When we slow down and practice mindfulness, we can focus our attention, intention, and awareness on the task in front of us. Rather than allowing our emotions to rule our lives and overwhelm us, we can choose to be calm and trust God in our circumstances.
  • Presence: When we feel overwhelmed, we may feel the urge to isolate, but that’s when we should seek the presence of trusted loved ones who can offer us comfort or pray with us.
  • Healing: Our focus should be on healing, not finding a cure. We may never fully eradicate the symptoms of anxiety, but through hard work and commitment, we can find healing, peace, and acceptance.

About the Author:

She is a writer, speaker, and psychiatric nurse practitioner with triple-board certifications in internal medicine, psychiatry/mental health, and addiction. Amanda practices at the nationally renowned Lindner Center of HOPE in Mason, Ohio. She volunteers as a clinical preceptor and teaches community classes on mental health, faith, and anxiety.

Dr. Crosby, Associate Professor and Vice Chair of Psychiatry and Behavioral Neuroscience at the University of Cincinnati (UC) College of Medicine and summa cum laude graduate of The Ohio State University, was recruited to join the Lindner Center of HOPE medical staff for the Center’s opening in 2008.  As a people-first physician leader with expertise in healthcare operations and policy, Dr. Crosby is guided by the values of empathy and excellence.  He drives results by combining his clinical experience with sound business principles.  He played significant, strategic roles in the growth and development of Lindner Center of HOPE, taking on more responsibility over time and serving in progressively more complex roles: Chief of Child and Adolescent Psychiatry, Medical Director of Lindner Center of HOPE Professional Associates, Chief Medical Officer, Chief Clinical Officer, and Chief Operating Officer (COO).

Lindner Center of HOPE Chief Research Officer member of team that identifies 64 regions of the genome that increase risk for bipolar disorder

Mason, OH, April 22, 2021 – Chief Research Officer of The Research Institute at Lindner Center of HOPE, Susan McElroy, MD, was part of a research team in the largest genetic study of bipolar disorder to date.  In his genetic study researchers have identified 64 regions of the genome containing DNA variations that increase risk of bipolar disorder—more than double the number previously identified.

The research team also found overlap in the genetic bases of bipolar disorder and other psychiatric disorders. Furthermore, the study supports a role of sleep habits, alcohol, and substance usage in the development of bipolar disorder, although further research is needed to confirm these findings. The study results were published May 17 in Nature Genetics (https://www.nature.com/articles/s41588-021-00857-4).

May 6, 2021, Mason, OH – Lindner Center of HOPE is proud to announce that it is a founding member and official provider of Hall of Fame Behavioral Health. The Pro Football Hall of Fame today announced the formation of Hall of Fame Behavioral Health, a program created to find comprehensive solutions through a network of mental and behavioral health services designed specifically for current and former athletes and their families.

With the support of numerous ambassadors – among them Pro Football Hall of Fame President & CEO David Baker; Hall of Famers RONNIE LOTT, BRIAN DAWKINS, STEVE ATWATER, ANDRE REED and TIM BROWN; current players Adrian Peterson and Calais Campbell; and other former NFL players and health care advocates – Hall of Fame Behavioral Health was founded with a simple yet challenging mission: to make mental health and the treatment of issues surrounding athletes and those who care for them destigmatized, accessible and widespread.

“We have to end the stigma surrounding mental health, and that includes athletes,” Dawkins said. “It’s OK to ask for help and to reach out if you are having issues. It’s OK not to be OK. But it’s not OK to stay that way – because our silence is killing us and damaging our families.”

Hall of Fame Behavioral Health will offer an easy-to-use concierge call center and crisis line to match treatment and counseling services with a vetted and accredited premier network of service providers across the country. These providers are trained to deal with such issues as post-career transition, identity, addiction, performance anxiety, mindfulness and the culture of sports. They understand athletes and can customize care to meet their needs. Services will complement existing programs and assistance available to players through the National Football League and its affiliated partners.

“The Pro Football Hall of Fame has always been about protecting the most important part of the game of football: the players,” Baker said. “With Hall of Fame Behavioral Health, our mission is to make mental and behavioral health services that meet the Hall of Fame’s standards of excellence easily accessible and available not only to Hall of Famers but to every player of this game, the people who support them and the kids dreaming about one day playing in the League. The Pro Football Hall of Fame is committed to ending the stigma that surrounds asking for help and protecting our family of athletes for generations to come.”

Wes Cain, President and CEO of Hall of Fame Behavioral Health, understands the importance of reaching those who feel reluctant to take the first steps in getting help. “Whether it’s affordability, access or simply saying the words ‘I need help’ to a trusted friend, current and retired athletes have faced an uphill battle in seeking and receiving mental health services. Our goal is to let everyone know that if you are a first-ballot Hall of Famer or a practice squad player, we hear you and we are here to support you. No one should be left behind on their journey to live a healthy life.”

Hall of Fame Behavioral Health is the newest health care-related initiative affiliated with the Pro Football Hall of Fame. In early 2020, the Hall announced its official entry into health services with the creation of Hall of Fame Health. Over the past year, Hall of Fame Health has developed several ways for former players and their families to obtain a full range of medical care. Offerings include: a provider network with concierge access at more than a dozen (and growing) top health systems in the country; a medical advisory board comprised of world-class physicians and clinicians; and a partner benefits administrator to assist with gaining access to top insurance offerings.

“Hall of Fame Behavioral Health is the latest development in this growing initiative, and it might be the one addressing the greatest need,” said Jeremy Hogue, CEO of Hall of Fame Health.

Hall of Fame Behavioral Health has partnered with these Centers of Excellence across the country:

  • Ashley Addiction Treatment (Baltimore, Md.)
  • Aultman Health Foundation (Canton, Ohio)
  • Baylor Scott & White Health (Dallas)
  • Emory Healthcare (Atlanta)
  • Lindner Center of HOPE (Cincinnati, Ohio)
  • Nashville Recovery Center (Nashville)
  • New Method Wellness (Southern California)
  • Sabino Recovery (Tucson, Ariz.)
  • The Becoming Counseling & Wellness (National)
  • The Menninger Clinic (Houston)
  • UCSF Weill Institute for Neurosciences (San Francisco)
  • Vanderbilt Health (Nashville)

Additional Centers of Excellence, player ambassadors and strategic partners are expected to join the Hall of Fame Behavioral Health network in coming months.

For those needing financial assistance, Hall of Fame Behavioral Health has partnered with the HART Foundation to provide grants and funding to ensure those who need help can receive it – no matter their economic situation.

“We are a forever brotherhood,” Dawkins said of athletes, “and we must do a better job of looking out for one another. There are many options out there, and now you can add Hall of Fame Behavioral Health as a viable and reliable one.”

Anyone experiencing a mental health emergency or requiring emergency assistance should call the HOFBH Crisis Line at 866-901-1245, or call 911, or head to the nearest hospital emergency room.

Mason, OH, April 22, 2021 – Lindner Center of HOPE president and chief operating officer, Paul R. Crosby, MD, was named a winner in the annual Business Courier Health Care Heroes awards in the Manager category on April 22, 2021.

As President and Chief Operating Officer(COO) of Lindner Center of HOPE (LCOH), Dr. Paul R. Crosby is responsible for oversight of compliance and quality activities; oversight of the medical staff office; oversight of EMR (Epic) modification and optimization, and liaison between Information Technology, Health and Information Management and clinical staff. Dr. Crosby is also responsible for the development and implementation of clinical and strategic initiatives as a member of the executive team and oversight of the Research Institute at LCOH. Dr. Crosby leads strategic innovation of clinical programs to keep pace with advancing medical science and to maintain viability of business aspects amid rapid changes in the market. He also works to establish and nurture symbiotic relationships with the other entities within LCOH’s academic health system, academic department, and externally with non-UC Health entities. Dr. Crosby also participates in marketing and fundraising activities to brand and sustain the organization.

In addition to his administrative responsibilities, Dr. Crosby provides outpatient psychiatric consultation to children and families referred from around the country.  He treats the entire range of psychiatric symptoms with particular expertise in the assessment and treatment of ADHD and the conditions that frequently accompany it such as anxiety disorders, mood disorders, learning disabilities, and substance use disorders.  In 2010, he founded the Center for Attention Disorders at LCOH to consolidate and coordinate LCOH’s efforts related to this illness.  Over the years, he has provided care in many of LCOH’s service lines, including residential services, inpatient adolescent services, and partial hospital programs. He also guided the creation of a unique 3.5-day outpatient comprehensive diagnostic assessment program for children and adolescents.

Dr. Crosby is a Health Care Hero because he rose up as a true leader in the face of a crisis, continuing to prioritize helping patients, while balancing the demands of implementing processes and procedures that would address a public health threat.

At the onset of the pandemic, mental health programs around the country were discharging patients, shuttering programs and decreasing access for people despite the level of need. Sadly, the pandemic was contributing to exacerbated existing mental health and addiction symptoms and new onset of significant mental illness. Dr. Crosby led the leadership team at LCOH to respond quickly and safely to the elevated health safety needs of all on campus, while recognizing the ongoing and increasing need for mental health treatment.

Under Dr. Crosby’s leadership, new protocols and procedures were evaluated and implemented based on current data and public health recommendations. He established an oversight team to share the various newly identified leadership needs. The team worked on the tasks of implementing and communicating ongoing and yet changing recommendations and practices, acquisition of cleaning and personal protective equipment and other necessary supplies, modifications to programs and services, adjustments to physical plant, and updates to policies impacting staff, patients and visitors. He also led the rapid launch of telepsychiatry services to outfit a newly remote outpatient practice with virtual visit options. He consistently communicated with all levels of the communication and encouraged open dialogue at all levels to ensure clarity and buy-in.

Dr. Crosby’s steadfast approach to overcoming all obstacles with a proactive and swift-moving team allowed LCOH to continue to save lives (even more than ever) and alleviate suffering caused by mental illness, even during the height of the pandemic. Remarkably few positive cases have set foot on the campus of LCOH, staff/provider layoffs and furloughs were avoided, as well as pay reductions and significant capacity reductions.

Amongst national peers in the mental health field, LCOH took a lead and became a model in its COVID response under Dr. Crosby’s leadership. LCOH also took a local leadership role in educating the public about mental health during a shared trauma such as a pandemic, through media interviews, presentations to local business leaders and community outreach.

Most recently, Dr. Crosby has led LCOH’s pandemic response including coordination of communications, establishment of safety best practices, rapid conversion to telehealth, and avoidance of staff or provider layoffs/furloughs, pay reductions, or capacity reductions.

Heath Care Heroes is the Business Courier’s recognition of those who have made an impact on health care in our community through their concern for patients, their research and inventions, their management skills, their innovative programs for employees and their services.

Lindner Center of HOPE’s High Hopes Auxiliary will present HOPE on the Green, a women’s golf shamble on Monday, May 17, 2021. The event is intended to raise funds in support of Lindner Center of HOPE’s telehealth services. High Hopes is an organization of caring volunteers serving Lindner Center of HOPE.

Why Telehealth Services?

Lindner Center of HOPE quickly learned last March that telehealth upgrades were essential to continue serving patients when the shelter in place/stay at home order was mandated. This service continues today and is here to stay.  Clinicians are communicating in this fashion with patients, their family members and loved ones. In fact, it has created greater access than ever.

Upgrades to telehealth services at the Center are necessary. New software platforms will be added, additional technology will be purchased and increasing the Center’s Internet broadband width is essential for continued telehealth service.

The event will be held at Hyde Park Country Club, 3740 Erie Ave., Cincinnati, Ohio 45208. The schedule is as follows:

Breakfast: 8 am
Shotgun Start: 9 am
19th Hole & Art Auction: 1 pm
Luncheon & Awards:  2 pm
All registrations include breakfast and lunch.

 19th Hole Happy Hour and Awards Ceremony immediately following play.
