Dr. Rosse does not think that medications alone are sufficient to ameliorate psychiatric distress and suffering and that other psychosocial interventions, such as therapy and

mindfulness, are important for recovery. His most recent book is titled" Approaching Mindfulness from the Second Door of Perception."
