Dr. Rhonda Mattox will share with us advice on finding calm in the chaos from her extensive career as a psychiatrist and Hollywood consultant.

Rhonda Mattox, MD is the President of the Arkansas Medical, Dental, and Pharmaceutical Association and the first psychiatrist to serve in that role in its 130-year history. She is an integrative behavioral health psychiatrist and consultant to federally qualified health centers and juvenile detention centers. Prior to that, Dr. Mattox was an Associate Professor with dual appointments in the Family Medicine and Psychiatry Departments at the University of Arkansas Medical Sciences. While teaching at University of California-Los Angeles (UCLA), she began assisting New York and Hollywood's award-winning writers and executive producers (from 90210; ER; Brothers and Sisters and other popular sitcoms) in the development of accurate, non-stigmatizing portrayals of mental illness within Hollywood's story lines. She continues to consult with Hollywood studios as a content expert on their portrayals of characters with mental illness in films and sitcoms.
