Advancing Behavioral Healthcare Through Innovation and Entrepreneurship: with MHCA's CEO Kiara Kuenzler

We're joined by Dr. Kiara Kuenzler, the newly appointed president and CEO of MHCA, Mental Health Corporations of America. MHCA was created to support CEOs and C-suite executives of behavioral healthcare organizations, promoting innovation and entrepreneurship.  We discuss their mission and how they keep leaders of these organizations on their game and on top of constant change to maximize the impact of their work (including insights on workforce development and avoiding burnout). We discuss the unique challenges in leading a behavioral health organization, the role of technology and AI in advancing mental health care, and MHCA's key initiatives in 2026.
