Double Board-Certified Psychiatrist, National Speaker & Author Helping Families, Schools, and Organizations Build Healthier Cultures in the Digital Age
Dr. Larry Mitnaul Biography
Dr. Larry Mitnaul is a double board-certified child, adolescent, and adult psychiatrist, national speaker, author, and proud father of seven. Trained at Dartmouth College and leading his private practice with Ascension Via Christi Behavioral Health, he brings one of the most complete perspectives in his field: the clinical expertise of an Ivy League-trained psychiatrist and the lived reality of a father raising a family in the digital age.
His mission is simple: meet people where they are. Whether he is speaking to a room of school administrators, a congregation of families, a corporate leadership team, or an auditorium of parents, Mitnaul translates clinical insight into practical tools that people can actually use. Not theory, but frameworks that work in real life.
Mitnaul is the host of The Dr. Mitnaul Show, a podcast and YouTube series on mental health, parenting, and family wellbeing, and the former host of the PBS series "Cause and Hope." He is the author of an upcoming book on raising children confidently in the digital age, and the founder of the Be Well Community, a live membership experience and the home of Season 2 of "The Dr. Mitnaul Show."
His brand partnerships include Bark Technologies, Verizon Family Plus, HGTV, Dove Men+Care, and Yoto. He has advised government officials on cell phone policy for children and digital health legislation, and works with schools and institutions on mental health resources for counselors, social workers, and administrators. In 2021, Mitnaul was honored with the Doris Kerr Larkins Rising Star Award by The Kansas African American Museum, recognizing leaders making significant impact in their respective fields. His social media platform reaches over 110,000 followers with a 2.25% engagement rate, making him one of the most credentialed and genuinely influential voices in the parenting and mental health space today.
Mitnaul does not deliver generic wellness talks. Every engagement is built around the audience, the theme, and what the room actually needs to walk away with. He is one of the rare speakers who can hold a school district all-staff, a faith community family conference, and a corporate leadership summit with equal credibility, and leave every room with something they can use on Monday morning.
